Testo I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen

I'll take you home again, Kathleenacross the ocean wild and wideTo where your heart has ever been,since you were first my bonnie bride.The roses have left your cheek.I've watched them fade away and die;Your voice is sad when e'er you speakAnd tears bedim your loving eyes.Chorsu: 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 nearthat life holds no thing, dear, but you.The smiles that once you gave to meI scarely see them now,though many, many times I seeA dark'ning shadow on your browChorusTo that dear home beyond the seaMy Kathleen shall again return.And when thy old friends welcome theeThy loving heart will cease to yearn.Where laughs the little sieuer streamBeside your mother's humble cot,And brightest rays of sunshine gleamThere all your grief will be forgot.
