On a particularly hard (mental, emotion and phsyical) day I drove home from work and stumbled on this song being played on NPR. Though I had probably heard it a million time during my "musical career" - it was the first time it brought me to tears. To me delight, I had a copy of the music in my file cabinet. I've been working on a "modern" version that kids might like - but at the same time keep the same feel of the original! Thanks for posting this!

@sleazylagoon--Thank you! They aren't the words to the song. I made them up. I also wrote three additional stanzas to complete the song. I seem to be inspired by the great music of Leroy Anderson. I wrote lyrics to his "First Day of Spring" and "Girl in Satin." Someday I'd like to show them to representatives of Mr. Anderson's estate.

I have always loved this short little melancholy piece. I would love to know what, if anything, inspired the title.

Need to return to this delightful music. Bring back Leroy Anderson and Leonard Bernstein. Cheers!

@sleazylagoon--I don't think "The Pennywhistle Song" has lyrics. Maybe some day...

If I could see inside your heart/So many miles away/So many years of changing seasons/Drift so fast away/Would there be any trace of me?/Somewhere a faded tapestry/A fragment of the dream I lived/When I was at your side...

I had no idea who he was when my friend mailed me this link... but I do remember his music from my childhood... it brought me close to tears as I remembered listening to the radio with my family at night as Dad read the paper and Mum knitted booties for another of her grandchildren. Thankyou so much for keeping this alive

This sounds like the version by Mantovani . . . in any case, this is the version that I remember as being heard at the end of Friday editions of WABC's "Eyewitness News" through 1977.

I seem to only remember it for the Sunday Night 11:30pm closing credits for "Eyewitness News" on WABC's Ch7 out of NYC.
