Sung by Annette Hanshaw
My father was Irish, my mother was English
But the Irish has the upper hand in me
And speakin' of Irish people and things
How'd ya like an Irish melody?
There's a light in your eyes, sweetheart darlin'
And it makes all the world fair and bright
Like the light in the skies, sweetheart darlin'
When the mornin' steals out of the night.
His lovelight is shinin' for someone
Sure I'm wondrin' just who it could be
My darlin'...
There's a light in your eyes, sweetheart darlin'
Tell me darlin', it's shinin' for me.
You're wonderful, you're glorious, and so my heart has air
Your island must be heaven
Because you came from there.
There's a light in your eyes, sweetheart darlin'
And it makes all the world fair and bright
Like a light in the skies, sweetheart darlin'
When the mornin' steals out of the night.
His lovelight is shinin' for someone
Sure I'm wondrin' just who it could be
My darlin'...
There's a light in your eyes, sweetheart darlin'
Tell me darlin', that light is shinin' just for me.

Hello. I'm still not 'here' much, due to 'real life'. so PLEASE READ MY BULLETINS!! Well, I'm finally over the bout of Sciatica. Now I 'get it': I couldn't MOVE without pain! I'm just glad I didn't have the nausea that my husband gets--thankfully, he hasn't had a recurrence in last few years.
