Gene Clark - Kathleen lyrics

Ever flaming eyes of green But the loneliest you have seen Stands there barefoot by the shore Like a widow's 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
