When I Come Home

This week a cracking song by Chris and Anne that really captures the spirit of returning home. On their CD 'Peaceful Harbour' they write:

"Chris wrote one and a half verses of this song. We sometimes have a competition for the audience to guess which (clue: sex and booze)."

Chris and Anne

Ch: When I come home, when I come home again
Sweet are the songs I'll be singing
When I come home, when I come home again
Deep is the love I'll be bringing

Tall are the trees by the riverside
Bright is the sun on the water
Peaceful and still is the countryside
Where we can stay forever

Ch:

Deep is the lake by the mountainside
Sweet is the scent of the flowers
We'll walk together hand in hand
Through gorse and heather for hours

Ch:

Down in the valley the village lies
Rosy and red in the sunset
Cosy the light in the window shines
Welcoming me from my travels

Ch:

Friends will come round and eagerly
Listen to tales of my journeys
Then we will drink a pint or two
To keep out the chill of the evening

Ch:

Dark is the night all is silent now
Let's leave this part of our lives
Here now beside me is my love
No more to lie alone
