Well I held you for the first time today
And I'll watch you grow and I'll watch you play
In this land of ours that we call our home
Filled with Cornish Hearts and with hills of stone
Filled with Cornish Hearts and with hills of stone
Where the mines of tin echo emptily
And the factory boats have hollowed out our sea
It seems so long ago, the prosperity
But I will build a life here for you and me
I will build a home for my family
And these clifftop homes there beside the sea
In the winter months shed no light on me
And their dusty panes, empty and forlorn
Well they break my heart and my soul is torn
Yeah they break my heart and my soul is torn
And these city folk with their tailored suits
They try to fell this tree and destroy the roots
They won't pull us down we will still stand tall
Onen Hag Oll we are one and all
Onen Hag Oll we are one and all
Though this land has changed, you'll still hear it ring
With the tales we tell and the songs we sing
And when you learn the words you will sing them loud
You're a Cornish Heart and forever proud
You're a Cornish Heart and forever proud
Yeah you're my Cornish Girl and forever, forever proud
