I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen

I will take you to your home, Kathleen 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 bonnie bride The roses all have left your cheeks I've watched them fade away and die Your voice is sad when e'er 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 wiII 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 Oh, I will take you back, Kathleen To where your heart could feel no pain And when the fields are fresh and green I will take you to your home, Kathleen
