Horo Johnny

Horo Johnny won't you come home soon
The winter's coming and I'm all alone
A candle's burning in my window love
And the wild geese they are flying home

A young man's love is something to behold
First it burns and then it soon turns cold
He'll whisper in the moonlight and your hand he'll hold
Then he'll vanish with the morning dew

Horo Johnny won't you come home soon
The winter's coming and I'm all alone
A candle's burning in my window love
And the wild geese they are flying home

He'll court you in a meadow in the summer time
When first you love it's the sweetest time
He'll promise you a golden ring and then one day
He'll vanish with the morning with the dew

Horo Johnny won't you come home soon
The winter's coming and I'm all alone
A candle's burning in my window love
And the wild geese they are flying home

You'll be waiting for his footsteps in the lonely room
Listen by the window he'll be coming soon
Your heart it will be breaking by the early dawn
For he'll vanish with the morning dew

Horo Johnny won't you come home soon
The winter's coming and I'm all alone
A candle's burning in my window love
And the wild geese they are flying home
And the wild geese they are flying home
