in the land of yore

I dream of coming Home, my love,
This word of a sweetest name;
Where the chill of the coldest night is warmed
By the glow of a roaring flame.

Be it the town, where a brick house stands
It greets a familiar sight;
There my journey comes to an end,
Within I find delight.

The wind sweeps over a field of gold,
Next a cottage fine;
Inside a treasure, beyond a measure,
Awaits on lips of wine.

In the forest deep, where a clear brook sings,
Its solace fills the mind;
A cabin nestled silent sleeps,
There your heart I find.

The town, the field, the deepest wood,
We may as the gypsy roam;
But wherever your dark eyes greet me, love -
I call Home, Sweet Home.

You haven't sung to us in a while t.
This was worth the wait.

I hear Dorothy in the background, "There's no place like home, there's no place like home..." Lovely rendering.
