Uncle Pat Lyrics

I sent off this morning Down the road along the river Which I take but once a year
My walk will take me by the shore Then inland for a mile or more From the cold sea spray

At dusk I will make my way Along the lanes and through the fields To where my cottage is
But before I step inside for bed I'll look up at the stars as we had All those years ago
So, here's for Uncle Pat
