Danny Boy

The valley is hushed, the flowers are all dying



The meadow is white with the winter snow



Lord as I stand at the place where daddies lying



I say a silent prayer



And somehow I know he hears me there



Though soft I tread above him



So now he sleeps in peace



His Danny boy's come home



The pipes the pipe are calling



From glen to glen and down the mountainside



The summers gone and all the leaves are falling



It's you, it's you must go and I must bide



Oh, come ye back when the sun shines on the meadow



Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow



For I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow



Oh, Danny boy, Oh, Danny boy I love you so



I close my eyes and still I can see



Him standing there on the hill



Tears filled his eyes as he waved goodbye to me



I can't forget, I guess I never will



He said, the valley is hushed, the flowers are all dying



The meadow is white with the winter snow



Come find the place where you know that I'll be lying



Say a silent prayer so I'll know
