I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen
Love's Journey Across Oceans: Kathleen's Heartfelt Return
Lyrics
I'll take you home again, Kathleen
I intend to bring you back to your home, Kathleen.
Across the ocean wild and wide
Across the vast and untamed ocean.
To where your heart has ever been
To the place that has always been in your heart.
Since first you were my blushing bride
Since the time you became my blushing bride.
The roses all have left your cheek
The roses have disappeared from your cheeks.
I've watched them fade away and die
I've witnessed them wither and perish.
Your voice is sad when e'er you speak
Your voice carries sadness whenever you speak.
And tears bedim your loving eyes
Tears cloud your affectionate eyes.
Oh, I will take you back, Kathleen
I promise to take you back, Kathleen.
To where your heart will feel no pain
To a place where your heart won't experience pain.
And when the fields are fresh and green
Amidst fields that are fresh and green.
I'll take you to your home again
I'll escort you to your home once more.
I know you love me, Kathleen, dear
I am aware of your love for me, Kathleen, my dear.
Your heart was ever fond and true
Your heart has always been affectionate and loyal.
I always feel when you are near
I sense that life is valuable only when you are close.
That life holds nothing dear, but you
Nothing in life is dearer than you.
The smiles that once you gave to me
The smiles you once bestowed upon me are rare now.
I scarcely ever see them now
I seldom witness them today.
Though many, many times I see
Although I see a darkening shadow on your brow frequently.
A darkening shadow on your brow
Oh, I will take you back, Kathleen
I reiterate my commitment to bring you back, Kathleen.
To where your heart will feel no pain
To a place where your heart won't suffer.
And when the fields are fresh and green
Among fields that are renewed and vibrant.
I'll take you to home again, Kathleen
I'll guide you back to your home, Kathleen.
