My Fathers House Lyrics - Stand Beside Me - Daniel O'donnell

The gable wall is all that's left now 

The old thatched cottage has fallen down 

I dry my eyes as I fondly remember 

The days of long ago when I was young 

In my fathers house we were poor but rich in love 

No TV but music there was plenty of 

My mama hummed the old melodies and we all sang along 

In my fathers house when I was young 

Come the time when I am older 

My own children are reared and gone 

I wonder then will they fondly remember 

The days of long ago when they were young

In my father's house, a smile would greet you at the door 

A friendly word, even travelers they're always welcome for 

And at night time neighbors rambled in 

And might stay 'til twelve or one 

In my father's house when I was young 

The years have passed and times are changing 

The rambling house has almost gone 

But I still hear the laughter of children 

Just as long ago when I was young
