I'll Take You Home Again, 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 bonny bride
The roses all have left your cheeks
I watched them fade away and die
You voice is sad when ever you speak
And tears before 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 will take you to your home Kathleen

I know you love me Kathleen dear
Your heart was always fond and true
But I always feel when you are near
That life holds nothing more than you
But the smiles that once you gave to me
I scarcely ever see them now
But more and more and more I see
A darkening 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 will take you home again Kathleen
Hmm
And when the fields are fresh and green
I will take you to your home Kathleen
