about

kathleen

lyrics

it's plain to see the sun won't shine today
i'm not in the mood for sunshine anyway
think i'll go insane i have to stop the pain
think i'll go down to see kathleen

a swallow comes she tells me of her dreams
says she'd like to know just what they mean
feel like i could die as i see her flying by
ride the northwind down to see kathleen

moon hangs high above the oceans roar
the stars have come to lead me to her door
crystal across the sands the waves they take my hand
soon i will see my sweet kathleen
