MAUREEN
By Cindy Walker

All tonight I dream in my land of an island far across the sea.
A little bit of heaven they call Ireland where an angel waits for me.

Maureen, Maureen, my heart is full with pain
To be with you and to hold you in my arms again.
In all my dreams I dream of you, Maureen,
And the misty moonlit meadows and the hills of green;

The hills that heard us whisper the secrets of our heart;
The hills that heard us promise that we would never part.
Maureen, Maureen, some day white sails will gleam
And you'll know I'm back to stay forever more, Maureen.


Note - Jim Reeves had changed the following original line:
The hills where first you kissed me and gave me your true heart;
Into:
The hills that heard us whisper the secrets of our heart;
