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 Smiling and an Irish heart is pining
For I kissed her and caressed her
in the gloaming long ago
loving Irish arms will press me
with true Irish love caress me
and sweet Irish lips will bless me
when it's Moonlight in Mayo
For Irish eyes like beacons shine all through the darkest night
I know their sweet love beams will always fill the world with light
the roses on her cheeks will lend enchantment to the sea
and when the shamrocks wear the dew I'll wed my sweet colleen.
CHORUS
for two irish eyes are Smiling and an Irish heart is pining
For I kissed her and caressed her
in the gloaming long ago
loving Irish arms will press me
with true Irish love caress me
and sweet Irish lips will bless me
when it's Moonlight in Mayo
