Mother Machree

[Verse 1]
There's a spot in me heart which no colleen may own
There's a depth in me soul never sounded or known
There's a place in my mem'ry, my life that you fill
No other can take it, no one ever will

[Chorus]
Sure I love the dear silver that shines in your hair
And the brow that's all furrowed and wrinkled with care
I kiss the dear fingers so toil-worn for me
Oh, God bless you and keep you, Mother Machree

[Verse 2]
Ev'ry sorrow or care in the dear days gone by
Was made bright by the light of the smile in your eye
Like a candle that's set in a window at night
Your fond love has cheered me, and guided me right

[Chorus]
Oh, I love the dear silver that shines in your hair
And the brow that's all furrowed and wrinkled with care
I kiss the dear fingers so toil-worn for me
Oh, God bless you and keep you, Mother Machree
