《Cottage by the Lee》歌词

[00:00:08] 'Tis well I know that often folks keep wond'ring

[00:00:16] When in my eyes a far off look they see

[00:00:24] What can it be the cause of all my dreaming

[00:00:32] What is this dream so very dear to me

[00:00:41] And truth to tell 'tis often I go roaming

[00:00:49] In dreams along the road of memory

[00:00:58] To where my heart will find its consolation

[00:01:06] Within that lovely cottage by the Lee

[00:01:15] My home sweet home that I so fondly cherish

[00:01:23] The dear ones there mean everything to me

[00:01:31] In all this world if there could be a heaven

[00:01:40] I'm sure it's in that cottage by the Lee

[00:01:48] 'Tis grand to stand outside that cottage doorway

[00:01:57] And gaze across the corn fields so rich and gold

[00:02:05] To hear the stream go rippling by the meadow

[00:02:14] Or watch the shepherd calling to his fold

[00:02:22] Brought down the lane that winds behind the garden

[00:02:31] The blackbird greets the smiling summer morn

[00:02:39] And as his music echoes o'er the valley

[00:02:48] You smile and bless the day that you were born

[00:02:56] Yes that's my dream my lovely dream of homeland

[00:03:05] And though I thought a rover I could be

[00:03:13] It's soon I found I left my heart behind me

[00:03:22] Within that lovely cottage by the Lee
