Moonlight In Mayo Lyrics - Singles - Daniel O'donnell

it was just a year ago today I left old Erin's Isle 

my heart was throbbin in the soft light of my colleen's smile 

in all my dreams I seem to hear her sweet voice soft and low 

I know she's waiting where we said goodbye in old Mayo 

CHORUS 

for two irish eyes are shining 

and an Irish heart is pining 

when I kissed her and caressed her 

in the gloaming long ago 

loving Irish arms will press me 

and true Irish love caress me 

and sweet Irish lips will bless me 

when it's Moonlight in Mayo 

Two Irish eyes like beacons shine all in the darkest night 

I know the sweet love glow will always fill the world with light 

the roses of her cheeks will lend enchantment to the sea 

and when shamrocks wear the dew I'll wed my sweet colleen
