《The Old House》歌词

[00:00:00] The Old House - John McCormack

[00:00:01] Written by：Frederick O'Connor

[00:00:08] Lonely I wander through

[00:00:13] Scenes of my childhood

[00:00:17] They come back to memory

[00:00:22] The happy days of yore

[00:00:26] Gone are the old folk

[00:00:31] The house stands deserted

[00:00:35] No light in the window

[00:00:39] No welcome at the door

[00:00:52] Heres where the children

[00:00:56] Played games on the heather

[00:01:01] Heres where they sailed

[00:01:04] Their wee boats on the burn

[00:01:09] Where are they now

[00:01:12] Some are dead some have wandered

[00:01:18] No more to their home

[00:01:22] Will the children return

[00:01:34] Lonely the house now

[00:01:39] And lonely the moorland

[00:01:43] The children have scattered

[00:01:48] The old folk are gone

[00:01:52] Why stand I here like

[00:01:57] A ghost or a shadow

[00:02:02] This time I was moving tis time

[00:02:10] I passed on
