the irish rovers - somebody loved me lyrics

[intro]
somebody loved me, i still see her face
and i seem to recall her beauty and grace
her name has escaped me, me memory’s not clear
and moments of lucidness bring me to tears

[verse 1]
somebody loved me, was it linda or jan?
sometimes i think that i called her “sweet anne”
when i whisper that name, she gives me a smile
then kisses my lips and it’s good for a while
[chorus]
who is this woman, so gentle and kind?
i know who she is, but it’s just slipped my mind
she sits by my bedside, holding my hand
and humming a song from some far+away land

[verse 2]
somebody loved me, it has to be true
for scenes of our live seem to come flooding through
the children, the dog, and all the old friends
but before i can ask her, the clouds come again

[chorus]
who is this woman, so gentle and kind?
i know who she is, but it’s just slipped my mind
she sits by my bedside, holding my hand
and singing a song from some far+away land

[humming break]
hmm+hmmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hm+hmm
hmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm
hmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmm+hmm
hmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm

[verse 3]
if i could just tell her how i love her so
if i could just hold her, i’d never let go
but, locked in this prison, i’m just not the same
and, god help me, i still can’t remember her name
[chorus]
who is this woman, so gentle and kind?
i know who she is, but it’s just slipped my mind
she sits by my bedside, just holding my hand
and humming a song from some far+away land
she’s humming a song from some far+away land

[humming break]
hmm+hmmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hm+hmm
hmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm
hmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmm+hmm
hmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm
hmm+hmmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hm+hmm
hmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm
hmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmm+hmm
hmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm+hm+hmmm

[outro]
when irish eyes are smiling
sure, it’s like a morn in spring
in the lilt of irish laughter
you can hear the angels sing
when irish hearts are happy
all the world seems bright and g+y
and when irish eyes are smiling
sure, they steal your heart away
