Isle Of Capri Lyrics

Isle Of Capri lyrics

ISLE OF CAPRI
Ray Noble

'Twas on the Isle of Capri that I found
her,
Beneath the shade of an old walnut tree,
Oh, I can still see the
flowers blooming 'round her,
Where we met on the Isle of Capri.

She
was as sweet as the rose of the dawning,
But somehow Fate hadn't meant her
for me,
And tho' I sailed with the tide in the morning,
Still my heart's
on the Isle of Capri.

Summertime was nearly over,
Blue Italian skies
above,
I said, "Lady, I'm a rover,
Can you spare a sweet word of
love?"
She whispered softly, " 'Tis best not to linger,"
Then as I kissed
her hand I could see
She wore a plain golden ring on her finger,
'Twas
good-bye to the Isle of Capri.
