Lyrics

  1. I left my home town to wander
    Life’s treasures I sought on the way
    But I found my treasure down yonder
    When I returned today

Chorus
I found a brand new sweetheart
In that old gal of mine
The years have been kind
For still I could find
The smile of the old love that I left behind
We sang the love songs of Auld Lang Syne
I felt her spell ’round my heart entwine
I found a brand new sweetheart
She’s that old gal of mine

  1. Fate is a fickle old fellow
    He urges dumb mortals to roam
    ‘Till they find the thing they’ve been seeking
    Waits for them right at home
