Lyrics When the Swallows Come Back to Capistrand - Carmen McRae

When the Swallows Come Back to Capistrand

When the swallows
Come back to Capistrano
That’s the day
You promised to come back to me When you whispered
«Farewell» in Capistrano
Twas the day
The swallow flew out to the sea
All the mission bells will ring
The chapel choir will sing
The happiness you’ll bring
Will live in my memory
When the swallows
Come back to Capistrano
That’s the day
I pray that you’ll come back to me All the mission bells will ring
The chapel choir will sing
The happiness you’ll bring
Will live in my memory
When the swallows
Come back to Capistrano
That’s the day
I pray that you’ll come back to me
