I thought it was funny when you missed the train    When I rang you at home they said you'd left yesterday    I thought it was strange when your car was found by the tree in Ennis    Where we used to hang around       Dear Isobel   I hope you're well and what you've done is right   Oh    It's been such hell   I wish you well   I hope you're safe tonight    It's been a long day coming and long will it last    When it's last day leaving and I'm helping it pass by loving you more       And who he would become   All the things he'd have done    Would he have loved you and not let you down   And would he be stronger than his father   Don't punish yourself   Leave it well alone       Dear Isobel   I hope you're well and what you've done is right   Oh    It's been such hell   I wish you well   I hope you're safe tonight    It's been a long day coming and long will it last    When it's last day leaving and I'm helping it pass by loving you more       It's been a long day coming and long will it last    When it's last day leaving and I'm helping it pass by loving    Loving you more
