Last night when I was listenin	A
Alone to wind and rain	A
He took the chair beside me	B
Himself come home again	A
	-
His kind blue eyes were smilin	A
Beneath his thatch of grey	C
He laid his hand on my hand	D
The ould sweetheartin way	C
	-
I pressed my cheek upon it	E
Remembering bitterly	B
The times he faced his daily toil	F
Without one smile from me	B
	-
And yet his meals were always good	G
His clothes well kept and clean	A
The neighbours sure will tell you	H
The splendid wife I ve been	A
	-
But in Life s stress and struggle	I
We somehow grew apart	J
You know these Irish mothers	K
'Tis the childer has their heart	J
	-
And he grew grim and close lipped	L
And harder day by day	C
Poor man too tired for laughter	M
Too worried to be gay	C
	-
But how his care enclosed us	N
For all he was so grim	O
The very rafters of our home	P
Were cut and laid by him	O
	-
And I that might have cheered him	O
The bitter words I said	Q
Oh God that we remember	M
Only when they are dead	Q
	-
But now my arms were round him	O
The room seemed full of flowers	K
And Youth came back and sunshine	A
That glorious time was ours	K
	-
The firelight flamed and flickered	R
The embers fell apart	J
I woke to empty silence	S
With sorrow at my heart	J
	-
The wild winds brought the morning	T
The dawn was red and chill	U
And Himself was lyin sleepin	A
In the graveyard on the hill	U
