Emmylou Harris Darlin' Kate Lyrics

So it's finally come,
You left this world,
But we'll miss our Kate,
Our darling girl!
We held your head,
Kissed your little brow,
And it felt odd you're sailing off.
Free from the pain
You lead that burning love,
But you're strong and giving heart,
You're surely...
As you sleep, the.. sail away,
Perhaps we will meet again somehow, someday!
Until then, there's nothing we can do, but wait,
To see what's more, our darling Kate!
All those nights we sang
And talked 'till the sun come up, You fed our souls, you filled our cup!

With your perfect words and all that voice,
We fell in love, we had no choice.
And I can see fur sure where you had gone,
But in that place I bet it's a better song!
For we've all known down here,
The taste of joy and ...
You were the sweetest... in the core of life.
Now you've slept... of a written sail,
Where perhaps we will meet again somehow, someday
But if there was one name I could consecrate
It would be yours!
It would be Kate!
