I’ll Take You Home Again Kathleen lyrics

[Intro]
I loved every song I heard when I was a kid, no matter what kind of song it was. From Joyce Kilmer's "Trees" to "Drink to Me Only With Thine Eyes" to "My Wild Irish Rose" to "I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen"

[Verse]
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 blushing bride
The roses all have left your cheeks
I watched them fade away and die
Your voice is saddened when you speak
And tears bedim your loving eyes
Oh, but I will take you back, Kathleen
To where your heart will feel no pain
And when the fields are lush and green
I will take you to your home again
