Mother Machree Lyrics - George Morgan

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 

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 

[ strings ] 

Every sorrow or care in the dear days gone by 

Twas 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 

Sure I love the dear silver...
