Goodnight Cariad (M.Brooks)
"
Nos Da" means Goodnight in Welsh. "Cariad" means Love. We've had audiences singing along to this in many different countries even where they can't speak English.

CHORUS
     Put me to bed turn out the light
     I'm fading fast and I've had a few
     Just one last kiss and I'll say goodnight
    
Nos da cariad, I'll dream of you

I can't deny that I've been drinking
A little whisky and beer
I've got a little sentimental
Had a laugh and shed a tear
But now the night is nearly over
It's closing time
I feel a little unsteady
Put your hand in mine

CHORUS

I can't deny that it affects me
Singing the old songs
I think back to where I came from
And wonder where I belong
But wherever I may stagger
Near or far
They say home is where the heart is
It's where ever you are

I know whenever I've been drinking
And I start to unwind
I feel my tounge getting looser
I say whatever's on my mind
So don't believe me in the morning
If I say it was the drink
When tonight I say "I love you"
That's what I really think

CHORUS
