Kathleen — текст песни (John Mcdermott)





Kathleen : to pan and terry



Blown like a leaf on a warm summer breeze

A vision approached me as cool as you please

With her strawberry hair and a wink in her eye

To say I was smitten would not be a lie

Gathering courage I started to speak

To ask of her name but my heart felt too weak

Like Id gone to heaven before I had died

I mumbled the question she calmly replied kathleen

Well I remember my first motorbike

With her riding pillion Id not heard the like

Of her giggles and squeels as we leaned left and right

And feeling her arms round my chest holding tight

Whilrwind romances were never my speed

But this one took off like a runaway steed

When she said she was having the time of her life

I knew then this vision would soon be my wife, kathleen

Oh kathleen the memories youve left me

Theyll be with me through all of my days

Thinking theres safety in numbers no doubt

Acounts for the fact that the wholw town turned out

To behold how serenely she walked down the aisle

But trembled and blushed as I kissed her sweet smile

Picnics on beaches and punts on the lake

Luck seemed to serve us a slice of lifes cake

That was more than enought to sustain us through years

When laughter would somehow give way to some tears kathleen

Oh kathleen the memories youve left me

Theyll be with me through all of my days

Then at the ball she looked ever so sweet

Heavy with child but still light on her feet

Every head turned our way as we whirled oer the floor

And I love her more than Id loved her before

(instrumental)



Two caring children siobhan and marie

A grand little grandchild to bounce on my knee

Theyre a fine testimonial to all that was right

In keeping our candle of love burning bright, kathleen

Now as my life nears its own eventide

Its almost as though she were here by my side

Such a presence an aura so perfectly made

My beautiful vision that never will fade kathleen
