I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen

I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen - PAUL DOWNES

I'll take you home again Kathleen

Across the ocean wild and wide

To where your heart has ever been

Since you were first my Bonnie bride

The roses all have left your cheek

I've watched them fade away and die

Your voice is sad when ever you speak

And tears bedim your loving eyes

Oh I will take you back Kathleen

To where your heart will feel no pain

And when the fields are fresh and green

I'll take you to your home again

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 darking shadow on your brow

Oh I will take you back Kathleen

To where your heart will feel no pain

And when the fields are fresh and green

I'll take you to your home again

I'll take you to your home again
