Lyrics The Isle Of Capri - The Gaylords

The Isle Of Capri

'twas on the Isle of Capri that I found her
Beneath the shade of an old walnut tree
Oh, I can still see the flow’rs bloomin' round her
Where we met on the Isle of Capri
She was as sweet as a rose at the dawning
But somehow fate hadn’t meant her for me And though I sailed with the tide in the morning
Still my heart’s on the Isle of Capri
Summertime was nearly over
Blue Italian sky above
I said «Lady, I’m a rover,
Can you spare a sweet word o’love?»
She whispered softly «It's best not to linger»
And then as I kissed her hand I could see
She wore a lovely meatball on her finger
'twas goodbye at the Villa Capri
Summertime was nearly over
Blue Italian sky above
I said «Lady, I’m a rover,
Can you spare a fine word o’love?»
She whispered softly «It's best not to linger»
And then as I kissed her hand I could see
She wore a plain golden ring on her finger
'twas goodbye on the Isle of Capri
'twas goodbye on the Isle of Capri
'twas goodbye on the Isle of Capri
