"Maureen" Lyrics

(Cindy Walker)

Alone tonight, I dream in my land
Of an island far across the sea
A little bit of heaven they call Ireland
Where an angel waits for me.

Maureen, Maureen
My heart is filled with pain
To be with you and to hold you
In my arms again.

In all my dreams
I dream of you, Maureen
And the misty moonlit meadows
And the hills of green.

The hills that heard us whisper
The secrets of our heart
The hills that heard us promise
That we would never part.

Maureen, Maureen
Someday white sails will gleam
And you'll know I'm back to stay
Forever more, Maureen...
