Kathleen : to pan and terry
2
Blown like a leaf on a warm summer breeze
3
A vision approached me as cool as you please
4
With her strawberry hair and a wink in her eye
5
To say I was smitten would not be a lie
6
Gathering courage I started to speak
7
To ask of her name but my heart felt too weak
8
Like I'd gone to heaven before I had died
9
I mumbled the question she calmly replied 'kathleen'
10
Well I remember my first motorbike
11
With her riding pillion I'd not heard the like
12
Of her giggles and squeels as we leaned left and right
13
And feeling her arms round my chest holding tight
14
Whilrwind romances were never my speed
15
But this one took off like a runaway steed
16
When she said she was having the time of her life
17
I knew then this vision would soon be my wife, kathleen
18
Oh kathleen the memories you've left me
19
They'll be with me through all of my days
20
Thinking there's safety in numbers no doubt
21
Acounts for the fact that the wholw town turned out
22
To behold how serenely she walked down the aisle
23
But trembled and blushed as I kissed her sweet smile
24
Picnics on beaches and punts on the lake
25
Luck seemed to serve us a slice of life's cake
26
That was more than enought to sustain us through years
27
When laughter would somehow give way to some tears kathleen
28
Oh kathleen the memories you've left me
29
They'll be with me through all of my days
30
Then at the ball she looked ever so sweet
31
Heavy with child but still light on her feet
32
Every head turned our way as we whirled o'er the floor
33
And I love her more than I'd loved her before
34
(instrumental)
35
Two caring children siobhan and marie
36
A grand little grandchild to bounce on my knee
37
They're a fine testimonial to all that was right
38
In keeping our candle of love burning bright, kathleen
39
Now as my life nears it's own eventide
40
It's almost as though she were here by my side
41
Such a presence an aura so perfectly made
42
My beautiful vision that never will fade kathleen
