Dear Irene

[Verse 1]
Oh my dear Irene
It seems like only yesterday
I saw you in a dream
I saw an angel float my way
And I know you had to go
But if you could, you would have stayed
So I'll hold it close, the memory of your face

[Chorus]
When the night has come
And the light has gone away
Come to me, my dear Irene

[Verse 2]
Oh my dear Irene
It seems like only yesterday
That life was but a dream
The bells they rang
You took my name
And I know you had to go
But if you could, you would have stayed
So I'll hold you close until my dying day

[Chorus]
When the night has come
And the light has gone away
I'll fly to you, my dear Irene

When the night has come
And the light has gone away
Come to me, my dear Irene
