Paroles de When My Father Sang Me Irish Songs
From my youth comes a memoryIt lingers on like the love my father held for me
'Take my hand,' he would say to me.
'I'll take you home to a land you've never chanced to see.'
Chorus
When my father sang me Irish songs
Each word became a dream
His heart would cry a melody
Through tears of emerald green
On velvet notes he'd carry me
To where his heart belongs
'Twas my father's eyes I saw
through
When he sang me Irish songs
In my mind I have sailed Tralee
And found a pride that's grown beyond my fantasy
In his voice I would bathe in joy
And feel the pain of the pipes that
call for Danny Boy
Chorus
Close you eyes and listen
And close your hand in mine To the smiling eyes of Ireland
Long before they cried
Chorus
Each word became a dream
His heart would cry a melody
Through tears of emerald green
On velvet notes he'd carry me
To where his heart belongs
'Twas my father's eyes I saw
through
When he sang me Irish songs
In my mind I have sailed Tralee
And found a pride that's grown beyond my fantasy
In his voice I would bathe in joy
And feel the pain of the pipes that
call for Danny Boy
Chorus
Close you eyes and listen
And close your hand in mine To the smiling eyes of Ireland
Long before they cried
Chorus
