I was after the words tae 'Tara hill', 'It's so good tae see you', 'The 12th of never' and 'If I don't send ye flowers'. Thanking ye in advance. My regards tae Mick and Alison who have been sae helpful with my previous requests fae song lyrics. Thought I'd re submit this thread and this time spell the bands name correctly!!! By the way Alison, it was very scary tae hear ye tell that an Osmond sang The 12th of Never. How's a man mean't tae sleep at night after such disquieting news lass?

The Twelfth Of Never
Paul Francis Webster (words) Jerry Livingston (music)
Copyright, 1956, Frank Music Corp.

You ask how much I need you
Must I explain
I need you, oh, my darling
Like roses need rain
You ask how long I'll love you
I'll tell you true
Until the twelfth of never
I'll still be loving you

Hold me close
Never let me go
Hold me close
Melt my heart like April snow

I'll love you till the bluebells forget to bloom
I'll love you till the clover has lost its perfume
I'll love you till the poets run out of rhyme
Until the twelfth of never
And that's a long, long time

Until the twelfth of never
And that's a long, long time

This is the pop version of the song, the version recorded by Johnny Mathis that most of us may be familiar with. My understanding is that this song is much older than 1956. Anybody have the whole story, and the traditional lyrics - or is this the one and only version?

Hi Connor,

The only one I've heard of is "twelfth of never", (I know it's an old song.... but I remember it covered by Donny Osmond in the 70's..... now there's a scary thought.)

I can't remember all of it but I'm sure you'll find it at the International Lyrics Server. (There's probably a link to it from the "links" thingy at the top of the page.)

Joe, about two months ago one of the regulars at the Boston Singers Circle sang a song of fair age, I believe it's from the Donegal area (only because it seems all he ever sings are versions local to where he's from), the air for the verses was very close to the "12th of Never" that I remember Johnny Mathis singing, the words also had a slight leaning towards Scottish, which I guess you could expect in some of the northern songs, but it now seems odd to find these flowers in the "12th of Never", unless the above is from that area of the world. Anyway if Connie's there tonight, I'll ask him to sing it & for any info. Barry

G'day all,

The 'Twelfth of Never' is a pop re-working of the 'Riddle Song' (or maybe vice versa) that was popular in the 60s folk revival (I seem to remember PP&M singing it).

As I understand it, this was in turn a re-working of a much older question and answer song (possibly "Captain Wedderburn's Courtship").

Regards,

Bob Bolton

G'day again,

On reflection, "re-working" is not quite the word for Twelfth of Never ... possibly something more like "rip-off of the old folk tune" is more accurate.

The Riddle Song, with the same tune is, of course, the one starting:
I gave my love a cherry, that had no stone,
I gave my love a chicken, that had no bone,
I gave my love a story, that had no end,
I gave my love a baby, with no cryin'

I presume the tune is related to the older song, but my references are all elsewhere. Regards, Bob Bolton

Hi Joe,

The very mention of Johnny Mathis makes me squirm I'm afraid...... sorry all of you fans out there... I did like him at one time.

I was working as a midwife in Belfast and was left to look after a girl in labour. She had decided that her baby was going to arrive into the world to "When a child is born" by Johnny Mathis...... so she had made a tape.... a contiuous loop of this song.

Thankfully she got fed up with it too after the first hour or so of listening to it. Still makes me cringe...

To further muddy the already dirty water here, Ilearned the 12th of Never from the singing of - cringe - Andy Williams back in the late fifties/early sixties. I think it's on his album with Danny Boy.
And I'm sure there's enough of all of us to go around out here in the ether.

Good thing this thread is headed Fureys, and not Mathis, Como, Williams et al, so we can hang out here in obscurity and get maudlin about our lost youth. (it wasn't so great, was it, now really?) Mick and alison, yes of course, I even learned to play some of those from piano arrangements, I loved them so. I also learned "You came, I was alone, I should have known, you were temptation. You smiled, luring me on, my heart was gone, you were temptation and I am yours..."
that and Misty...
I think Joe must be out of town, or at least away from his computer, because he hasn't posted in a couple days. Either that or he took the "Do you ever sleep" thread to heart, cause I can't otherwise imagine him failing to rise to bait like this.(grin)

Hey, I sure missed out on something when my cookie crumbled. I was off working in the mountains, and then I couldn't get back on Mudcat when I got home. Now I find that Mick is trying to steal Alison away. What kinda friend are you, Mick?
Let be known for once and for all that I don't care for Mathis, Williams, or Como. I like Sinatra and Crosby quite a bit, although I'd have to say my two favorite male singers of the old standards are Johnny Mercer and Willie Nelson. I actually prefer the female vocalists - Dinah Shore, Nancy Wilson, Jo Stafford, Ella Fitzgerald, to name just a few - and especially Peggy Lee.

It's good to see you, so good to see you
Oh how I miss you when I am gone
I've crossed the ocean, travelled through many lands
It's good to see you, to be in your home

From:

Connor, here's the song you wanted:

GOOD TO SEE YOU
(Allan Taylor)

It's good to see you, so good to see you
Oh how I've missed you since I've been gone
'Cause I've crossed the oceans, travelled through many lands
And it's good to see you, to be in your home

There is something in me that needs to wander
There is many a land I have to see
When I'm far away in a land of strangers
I know my good friends think on me

When a man is down, down on his fortune
He stands alone, sometimes alone
He looks around him, looking for an open hand
Sometimes there's one, sometimes there's some

Oh it's a wonder when it comes to friendship
No matter how far away, no matter how long
There's a constant thread that's never broken
It ties me to my friends and home

[1994:] I taught this song to Alex Campbell not long after I'd written it. He sang it all around Denmark, and I got invited over because of that. The only thing was, when I tried to sing this song people told me, "You can't sing that, it's Alex Campbell's song". "But I wrote it!" "It's still Alex Campbell's song." (Allan Taylor, intro Tonder Folk Festival)

[1997:] I wrote this song in 1977, on the beautiful island of St. Thomas, one of the Virgin Islands in the Caribbean. I had just come through the toughest part of my life; my performing career had almost ended due to the damage on my vocal chords caused through overwork, but a period of silence (no talking or whispering for three months) allowed the chords to heal. Then I had to start on the long and difficult process of learning to sing and talk without doing the same damage again [...]. My time in St. Thomas was to be a recuperation period, a time when I could forget all the problems of the recent past and concentrate on getting fit again for performing. And it worked. I came to make some major decisions about my future [...]. Extreme times make one assess one's life and values. I began to realise what was important and what could be discarded. Success is a relative concept - it depends on one's criteria. Establishing the criteria is the difficult part, and this is often influenced by extreme experiences. I began to realise the value of friends and how I wished some of them could be with me to share the island. It was in this mood that the song began to develop. My ex-wife Kathy, more in this than any other song I have written was a great help offering rhymes and ideas as I tried to form the song.
Of all the songs I have written, this has been the most recorded by other performers, of quite diverse styles. It has been recorded as a Country Song (Don Williams), as an M.O.R. song (Nana Mouskouri) and as a soft Rock song (Frankie Miller), apart from the many versions by folk music performers. My favourite version is by Alex Campbell, who had a minor hit with it in Denmark. I had taught him the song backstage at the Norwich Folk Festival, around 1978 and he had taken it and made it his own. In fact when I first went to Denmark and sang the song many people would tell me that I shouldn't sing it as it was Alex's song! He knew how to sing the song because he had lived it, and as far as I know it was the last song he ever sang in public.
Note: When Alex Campbell recorded the song he changed the last line of the second verse to: "Sometimes there's one, oftimes there's none," which I think is a better line than the one I wrote.
When Frankie Miller recorded the song he changed the last line of the chorus to: "It's good to see you, to be in your arms". (Taylor, Songbook - Well worth getting if you like his songs!)

Joe, you rascal. While it is true that I am American, born and bread, I was raised in Parnell, Michigan, around more people that spoke with a brogue than those that didn't. If my brogue is imitation, it's because it is what I was raised with.

Graeme, Here are the lyrics to "Steal Away". The song was written by Phil Coulter about a dream that he had as a child stealing away in the middle of the night. (source: The Furey Bros. & Davey Arthur Songbook)

CHORUS:
Steal away, Let's steal away, no reason left to stay.
For me and you, let's start anew, and darling steal away.

Let's steal away and chase our dreams
And hope they'll never find us.
The dreamy days, the empty nights,
We'll leave them all behind us.

CHORUS

We'll leave behind the city streets
The gloom and desolation
The rain, the cold, just growing old
God knows it's a hard old station.

CHORUS

We'll leave behind our memories
and make a new beginning
We have to choose to win or lose
And it's time we started winning.

Re: 'Twelfth of Never' above, there's this song to the same tune [but not by The Furrys]


SHANAGOLDEN (Sean McCarthy)

The cold winds from the mountains are calling soft to me,
The smell of scented heather brings bitter memories:
A wild and lonely eagle up in the summer sky,
Flies high o'er Shanagolden, where my love Willie lies.

I met him in the winter time when snow was on the ground
The Irish hills were peaceful and love was all around.
Scarcely twenty years old, a young man in his prime.
We were married, darling Willie by the eve of Christmas time.

Do you remember Willie, we walked the moonlit road
I held you in my arms, love, I would never let you go.
Our hands they were entwined, my love, all in the pale moonlight,
By the fields of Shanagolden on a lonely winter's night.

Then came the call to arms, love, the heather was aflame.
Down from the silent mountains, the Saxon strangers came.
I held you in my arms then, my young heart wild with fear,
In the fields by Shanagolden, in the springtime of the year.

You fought them, darling Willie, all through the summer days.
I heard the rifles firing in the mountains far away
I held you in my arms then, your blood ran free and bright,
And you died in Shanagolden, on a lonely summer's night.

But that was long ago, love, now our son grows fine and tall;
The hills they are at peace again: the Saxon strangers gone.
"We'll place a red rose on your grave
By the silvery pale moonlight,
And we'll think of Shanagolden on a lonely winter's night"

EV'RY TIME (WHEN WE ARE GONE) (Tom Paxton) – lyrics and chords
I WILL LOVE YOU (Tom Paxton) – lyrics only.
EVERY TIME (Tom Paxton) – lyrics only.
EV'RY TIME (Tom Paxton) – lyrics and chords.

I would love to know the history of this song. Did Paxton himself change the words (that is, did he record more than one version) or did the Fureys change them? Are all the above transcriptions accurate, and correctly attributed to a particular recording? Or do the lyrics vary only because people posted them using their own faulty memories?

The Fureys substituted words in my lyrics to substantiate their point of view whereas the original song was about the Highland Clearances in Scotland where the people were chased out by the landords helped by Scottish agents or factors.

YESTERDAY'S PEOPLE
Songwriter: ???
Recorded by The Fureys

Words which are wasted, words which are weak -
What do we live for and what do we seek?
Some way to love them, and some way to speak
To yesterday's people with yesterday's dreams.

They've lived in this world for so many years;
They fought in the wars, but still long for peace.
And now they look back on what might have been
For yesterday's people with yesterday's dreams.

    Once my soul it would rise to the sound of love singing,
    But the songs of my childhood have long been forgotten.
    I could dance without tiring from morning till evening,
    But my old heart is wasted, and my body grows feeble.

Once they were young, they too had their dreams
To climb every mountain to see everything;
But now they grow older and colder it seems,
Yesterday's people with yesterday's dreams.

Words, were they wasted? Words, were they weak?
What do we live for and what do we seek?
But some way to love them, and some way to speak
To yesterday's people with yesterday's dreams.

I compared this transcription with the Furey's recording, and it seems to me the transcription is pretty good. It didn't include the last verse, and I'm not completely sure my transcription of that verse is right.
