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.

Today we are NOT eating Tacos. We hope to have a late lunch with Wendy, Bill & Will at Vila Brazil in Garland, Texas. It is just across Lake Ray Hubbard and next to Bass Pro.
We hope the rain that they are predicting will wait until we get back home.
We will all have our umbrellas! As no one wants to look like a drowned rat or mouse!
But we pray for no high winds or hail in the storms in our area also!
Then after the late meal and wonderful company, we send lots of Sweet Dreams as it might rain all night long.
Have an awesome week! Many people in my condo complex are outside & firing up their bbq's because it's 70 & sunny. False spring--thunderstorms & almost freezing temps are in Wonderland's forecast.
