Somebody Loved Me

[Intro]
Somebody loved me, I still see her face
And I seem to recall her beauty and grace
Her name has escaped me, me memory's not clear
And moments of lucidness bring me to tears

[Verse 1]
Somebody loved me, was it Linda or Jan?
Sometimes I think that I called her "Sweet Anne"
When I whisper that name, she gives me a smile
Then kisses my lips and it's good for a while

[Chorus]
Who is this woman, so gentle and kind?
I know who she is, but it's just slipped my mind
She sits by my bedside, holding my hand
And humming a song from some far-away land

[Verse 2]
Somebody loved me, it has to be true
For scenes of our live seem to come flooding through
The children, the dog, and all the old friends
But before I can ask her, the clouds come again

[Chorus]
Who is this woman, so gentle and kind?
I know who she is, but it's just slipped my mind
She sits by my bedside, holding my hand
And humming a song from some far-away land

[Humming Break]
Hmm-hmmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hm-hmm
Hmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm
Hmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmm-hmm
Hmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm

[Verse 3]
If I could just tell her how I love her so
If I could just hold her, I'd never let go
But, locked in this prison, I'm just not the same
And, God help me, I still can't remember her name

[Chorus]
Who is this woman, so gentle and kind?
I know who she is, but it's just slipped my mind
She sits by my bedside, just holding my hand
And humming a song from some far-away land
She's humming a song from some far-away land

[Humming Break]
Hmm-hmmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hm-hmm
Hmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm
Hmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmm-hmm
Hmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm
Hmm-hmmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hm-hmm
Hmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm
Hmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmm-hmm
Hmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm-hm-hmmm

[Outro]
When Irish eyes are smiling
Sure, it's like a morn in Spring
In the lilt of Irish laughter
You can hear the angels sing
When Irish hearts are happy
All the world seems bright and gay
And when Irish eyes are smiling
Sure, they steal your heart away
