Song - The Church Hall in Drummore

She’s sitting down beside the wall
When the music starts to play
I’m walking slowly ‘cross the hall
And I'm lost for words to say

I know her name and nothing more
But there’s something in her eyes
We’re in the village of Drummore
In the Church Hall side by side

Some kind of spell falls over us
It's the nineteen seventies
We’re oh so young and lost for love
And we gently start to kiss

Her lips are soft; she holds me tight
And we’re seized by tenderness
But something took me off that night
From her sweet and tender lips

From time to time I think of you
In your village by the shore
And how the years so quickly flew
Since we kissed then touched no more

I caught your eye in Mill Street once
And we said a warm hello
It turned my thoughts to love and chance
In the church hall in drummore

(chorus)
I held you in my arms that night
A short and precious time
And you were more than you’ll ever know
So long ago dear in Drummore
