Daniel O'Donnell - I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen lyrics

rate me

(Westendorf)

I’ll take you home again, Kathleen

Across the ocean wild and wide

To where your heart has ever been

Since first you were my loving bride.

The roses all have left your cheek

I watch them fade away and die

Your voice is sad when ere you speak

And tears bedim your lovely eyes.

Chorus:

Oh, I will take you back, Kathleen

To where your heart will feel no pain

And when the fields are fresh and green

I will take you to your home, Kathleen.

I know you love me, Kathleen, dear

Your heart was ever fond and true

I always feel when you are near

That life holds nothing, dear, but you.

The smiles that once you gave to me

I scarcely ever see them now

Though many, many times I see

A dark'ning shadow on your brow.

Chorus:

Oh, I will take you back, Kathleen

To where your heart will feel no pain

And when the fields are fresh and green

I will take you to your home, Kathleen...
