Gene Clark Kathleen Lyrics

Kathleen Lyrics

Ever flaming eyes of green 
But the loneliest you have seen 
Stands there barefoot by the shore 
Like a widows walk that hears their dour 
 
And a voice she`s heard not seen 
For many years she`s sailed alone 
Merry but one day when he 
Went a-whalin` on and then goes on, his Kathleen 
 
Silently she holds within 
Like a proud and beautiful she is 
Faith like no-one ever said 
And her reasons won`t belay her fears 
 
Would the cruel stormy sea 
Take her love and just never tell life when 
And each day, Kathleen 
She will beg the spirits of the wind, for Kathleen 
 
Why she`d be upon her knee 
Begs the spirit of the wind 
Send him safely home from sea 
So that love undecided can bloom again, for Kathleen
