And the scent of jasmines on a summer night Take the song of the brook, as it flows along And lo! A song is born Take a baby shoe, and a rose that's pressed And the memory of a wedding dress Take the dreams of the years that have long passed on And lo! A song is born HOME VERSE No matter where you wonder, no matter where you roam The one place dearest, to your heart is home sweet home Though the folks may treat you nicely When the close of day draws nigh And you think about your home sweet home You could sit right down and cry CHORUS You can travel north and south and east and far into the west But your heart strings tied to the latch key of the place that you love best Though there?s lots of folks around you, still you feel so all alone Cause you?re longing for the place you love, your home sweet home 2ND VERSE It may not be a mansion just a single little cot Sitting out among the trees in a quiet and peaceful spot When the songbirds serenade you. and the wild flowers love to bloom It?s the place right next to heaven, cause its home sweet home MEMORIES VERSE Memories, memories so dear to my heart Memories, memories may we never part I will keep you close to me I?ll search eternality Priceless treasures you will be. my beloved memories REFRAIN Moonlight and Magnolias long a sleepy southern shore Tho? the years have passed away I love you more and more Time has left its traces, but our love is just the same We?ll find peace, and tenderness down in memory lane
