I often think of home Dee-ol-ee-ay<br>
I often think of home Dee-ol-ee-ay<br />
When I am all alone and far away;<br>
When I am all alone and far away;<br />
I sing an old refrain, dee-ol-ee-ay<br>
I sing an old refrain, dee-ol-ee-ay<br />
For it recalls to me a bygone day<br>
For it recalls to me a bygone day<br />


It takes me back again to meadows fair<br>
It takes me back again to meadows fair<br />
Where sunlight's golden rays beam everywhere<br>
Where sunlight's golden rays beam everywhere<br />
My childhood joys again come back to me<br>
My childhood joys again come back to me<br />
My mother's face in fancy too I see<br>
My mother's face in fancy too I see<br />


It was my mother taught me how to sing<br>
It was my mother taught me how to sing<br />
And to that memory my heart will cling<br>
And to that memory my heart will cling<br />
I'm never sad and alone while on my way<br>
I'm never sad and alone while on my way<br />
As long as I can sing Dee-ol-ee-ay<br>
As long as I can sing Dee-ol-ee-ay<br />


Though years have passed and gone, dee-ol-ee-ay<br>
Though years have passed and gone, dee-ol-ee-ay<br />
And though my heart is young my head is grey.<br>
And though my heart is young my head is grey.<br />
Yet still the echoes ring, dee-ol-ee-ay<br>
Yet still the echoes ring, dee-ol-ee-ay<br />
And dear old memories forever stay.<br>
And dear old memories forever stay.<br />


This song will bring me visions full of light<br>
This song will bring me visions full of light<br />
And sweetest dreams throughout the darkest night<br>
And sweetest dreams throughout the darkest night<br />
Of all that life can give, that song is best<br>
Of all that life can give, that song is best<br />
I'll take it with me when I go to rest<br>
I'll take it with me when I go to rest<br />


And when at last my journey here is o'er<br>
And when at last my journey here is o'er<br />
'Twill ring more joyfully than e'er before<br>
'Twill ring more joyfully than e'er before<br />
For up to heavens I will take my lay<br>
For up to heavens I will take my lay<br />
The angels, too, will sing dee-ol-ee-ay<br>
The angels, too, will sing dee-ol-ee-ay<br />
