I'll take you home again Kathleen
  Across the ocean wild
  To where your heart has ever been
  Since first you were my bonny bride
  The roses all have left your cheek
  I watch them fade away and die
  Your voice is soft when you speak
  And tears bedim your lovely eyes
  Oh, I will take you home Kathleen
  Across the ocean wild
  And when the fields are soft and green
  I will take you to your home Kathleen
    Somehow I feel
  That someday we'll meet again
  Don't ask me how
  It's something I can't explain
  Until the day
  I give up all hope of you
  Assure yourself this I'll do
  I will be true
    It's been so long darling
  Since I gazed into your eyes
  It's been so long darling
  But now I realize
  'bout your love, not seeing you,
  It hurts me through and through
  It's been so long darling
  Well, I'm coming back to you
    tadadada ... ?... Apron strings
    There tatatatata
  There's no tomorrow
  When love isn't near
