Gracie Fields - Isle Of Capri lyrics

'Twas on the Isle of Capri that he found her Beneath the shade of an old walnut tree Oh, I can still see the flowers blooming 'round her Where they met on the Isle of Capri She was as sweet as a rose at the dawning But somehow fate hadn't meant it to be And though he sailed with the tide in the morning Still his heart's in the Isle of Capri Summertime was nearly over Blue Italian sky above He said, lady, I'm a rover Can you spare a sweet word of love She whispered softly, it's best not to linger And then as he kissed her hand he could see She wore a plain golden ring on her finger 'Twas good-bye on the Isle of Capri Somewhere far away, over Naples Bay I heard a quaint lover's story It's magic thrill holds a spell on me still It's a story old, that's been sadly told Down by the shore in the moonlight How love began for a girl and a man 'Twas on the Isle of Capri that he found her Beneath the shade of an old walnut tree Ha-ha-ha-hahhhhhh, ha-ha-ha-hah Where they met on the Isle of Capri She was as sweet as a rose at the dawning But somehow fate hadn't meant it to be Ha-ha-ha-hahhhhhh, ha-ha-ha-hah Still his heart's in the Isle of Capri Summertime was nearly over Blue Italian sky above He said, lady, I'm a rover Can you spare a sweet word of love Ha-ha-ha-hah, ha-ha-hah, ha-ha-hah-hah Ha-ha-ha-hah, ha-ha-hah, ha-ha-hahhh She wore a plain golden ring on her finger 'Twas good-bye on the Isle of Capri
