It takes two to get together
It takes time to make it last
We'll all end up in some way
Like the drink in last night's glass
But we'll take this chance together
Let's not think about the end
Never mind the strangers, 'cos I'll always be your friend
Until the end
We've crossed the sea together
We've had our ups and downs
We've gone further than we've ever dreamed
From our county Galway town
If we're up on top tomorrow
Or if it all just ends
Never mind the strangers, 'cos I'll always be your friend
Until the end
It hasn't all been easy
But sure that's the way it goes
We've been shaken, rocked and rattled
Taken jabs and body blows
There's a strength in being together
Like a steel bar that won't bend
Never mind the strangers, 'cos I'll always be your friend
Until the end
Even now it's hard to think back
When did it all begin
Was it some night drinking in Gay Browne’s pub
Every soul is welcomed in
On this fine summer's evening
As the blue of night descends
Never mind the strangers, 'cos I'll always be your friend
Until the end
We've seen the other side of life
And not been too impressed
It doesn't beat a day at home
If you put it to the test
But at least we took the challenge
We didn’t just pretend
Never mind the strangers, 'cos I'll always
Always be your friend
Until the end
