Mary Black - Katie lyrics

rate me

Tumbling curls of green by stainglass streaming light

And a yellow coloured lampshade used to keep us up all night

And the smile upon her face, the tears upon your cheek

And the night sky on the window

Your heart calling out to me.

Chorus

Come running home again, Katie

Come running home again

Cross my heart and hope to die

Shall I cause another tear from your eye

The mirror that won't talk and your nightgown on the door

And the old pedal Singer just don't sing no more

You can roll the reels for hours

From the movie of this book

It's a question mark on this heart of mine

sends an elder back to look.

Chorus

Now I'm looking through a tunnel

Back into the room

With the genius of a druid when the sunlight floods the tomb

And I'm never going back there, and I couldn't anyway

'Cause though I made the great escape

I never got away.

Chorus
