Troy


(sinéad o'connor)

I’ll remember it
And dublin in a rainstorm
And sitting in the long grass in summer
Keeping warm
I’ll remember it
Every restless night
We were so young then
We thought that everything
We could possibly do was right
Then we moved
Stolen from our very eyes
And i wondered where you went to
Tell me when did the light die
You will rise
You'll return
The phoenix from the flame
You will learn
You will rise
You'll return
Being what you are
There is no other troy
For you to burn

And i never meant to hurt you
I swear i didn't mean
Those things i said
I never meant to do that to you
Next time i'll keep my hands to myself instead
Oh, does she love you
What do you want to do?
Does she need you like i do?
Do you love her?
Is she good for you?
Does she hold you like i do?

Do you want me?
Should i leave?
I know you're always telling me
That you love me
Just sometimes i wonder
If i should believe
Oh, i love you
God, i love you
I'd kill a dragon for you
I’ll die
But i will rise
And i will return
The phoenix from the flame
I have learned
I will rise
And you'll see me return
Being what i am
There is no other troy
For me to burn

And you should’ve left the light on
You should’ve left the light on
Then i wouldn't have tried
And you'd never have known
And i wouldn't have pulled you tighter
No i wouldn't have pulled you close
I wouldn't have screamed
No i can't let you go
And the door wasn't closed
No i wouldn't have pulled you to me
No i wouldn't have kissed your face
You wouldn't have begged me to hold you
If we hadn't been there in the first place
Ah but i know you wanted me to be there oh oh
Every look that you threw told me so
But you should’ve left the light on
You should’ve left the light on
And the flames burned away
But you're still spitting fire
Make no difference what you say
You're still a liar
You're still a liar
You're still a lawyer

(yes it's really lawyer, according to the official books !!)

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics TROY of SINEAD O'CONNOR is also present in the album The lion and the cobra (1988)

Biografia

Sinéad Marie Bernadette O'Connor (Dublin, December 8, 1966 – London, July 26, 2023) was an Irish singer-songwriter of international fame. Known for her powerful voice and musical style that blended elements of pop, rock, folk, and traditional Irish music, O'Connor reached the peak of popularity in the 1990s with albums like "The Lion and the Cobra" (1987) and "I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got" (1990). The latter, featuring the iconic single "Nothing Compares 2 U", sold over 10 million copies worldwide. Her career was marked by controversial moments, such as the destruction of a portrait of the Pope during a televised performance in 1992, which earned her both hostility and admiration. Despite the controversies, O'Connor continued to release music until the end of her life, exploring new musical genres and addressing social and political issues in her songs. In 2017 she legally changed her name to Magda Davitt and in 2018 converted to Islam, taking the name Shuhada' Sadaqat.
