There are mem'ries of family and mem'ries of home,
That tug at my heart strings wherever I roam;
There are mem'ries of good friends I knew long ago,
Mem'ries that follow wherever I go.
Newfoundland memories on my mind,
Take me back to happier times;
Of places and things left behind,
Newfoundland memories on my mind.
There are mem'ries of good times and mem'ries of bad,
And some that remind me of dreams I once had;
There are mem'ries of warm days and soft summer nights,
Cool, gentle breezes and stars shining bright.
Newfoundland memories on my mind,
Take me back to happier times;
Of places and things left behind,
Newfoundland memories on my mind.
There are mem'ries of blue skies and birds flying free,
Of waves on the ocean that call out to me;
There are mem'ries of meadows and clean, sparkling streams,
Mem'ries that haunt me in all of my dreams.
Newfoundland memories on my mind,
Take me back to happier times;
Of places and things left behind,
Newfoundland memories on my mind.
Recorded by Doreen Brown [b.1933] (Should I Cross The Line, 2000, D B Enterprises).
