Gracie Field Isle Of Capri Lyrics

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
