Katie

Jimmy MacCarthy
Tumbling curls of green by stainglass streaming light And a yellow coloured lampshade used to keep us up all night And the smile upon her face, the tears upon your cheek And the night sky on the window Your heart calling out to me. Come running home again, Katie Come running home again Cross my heart and hope to die Shall I cause another tear from your eye The mirror that won't talk and your nightgown on the door And the old pedal Singer just don't sing no more You can roll the reels for hours From the movie of this book It's a question mark on this heart of mine sends an elder back to look. Come running home again, Katie Come running home again Cross my heart and hope to die Shall I cause another tear from your eye Now I'm looking through a tunnel Back into the room With the genius of a druid when the sunlight floods the tomb And I'm never going back there, and I couldn't anyway 'Cause though I made the great escape I never got away. Come running home again, Katie Come running home again Cross my heart and hope to die Shall I cause another tear from your eye
