Tony Bennett - Got The Gate On The Golden Gate lyrics

Went for a walk on day alone Down around the bay I guess you could say that it was fate How else could I have met my love On the Golden Gate? She strolled along the bridge, and she Was the cutest pigeon, gee Did you never palpitate? Well, you'd have swooned to see her there On the Golden Gate I looked into her eyes And foggy skies were clear Just when I thought love was here What a switch Along came a Cadillac It stopped and she got in back Alas and alack, she had a date I finally found the love I longed for too late I have no gold and got the gate on the Golden Gate I hung around to see if she would reappear But no such luck and now it's clear I'm a goner Now every day I stroll along Down around the bay I guess I'll simply chalk it up to fate And that's what happens to you when you don't rate I had no gold and got the gate on the Golden Gate
