Cottage By The Lee Lyrics - Daniel O'donnell

'Tis well I know that often folks keep wond'ring 

When in my eyes a far off look they see 

What can it be the cause of all my dreaming 

What is this dream so very dear to me? 

And truth to tell, 'tis often I go roaming 

In dreams along the road of memory 

To where my heart will find its consolation 

Within that lovely cottage by the Lee 

My home, sweet home that I so fondly cherish 

The dear ones there mean everything to me 

In all this world, if there can be a heaven 

I'm sure it's in that cottage by the Lee

'Tis grand to stand outside that cottage doorway 

And gaze across the corn fields so rich and gold 

To hear the stream go rippling by the meadow 

Or watch the shepherd calling to his fold 

And down the lane that winds behind the garden 

The blackbird greets the smiling summer morn 

And as his music echoes o'er the valley 

You smile and bless the day that you were born
