SLEEPY LAGOON |
|
Harry James |
|
- words by Jack Lawrence, music by Eric Coates |
|
|
|
A sleepy lagoon, a tropical moon and two on an island |
|
A sleepy lagoon and two hearts in tune in some lullabyland |
|
The fireflies' gleam reflects in the stream |
|
They sparkle and shimmer |
|
A star from on high falls out of the sky |
|
And slowly grows dimmer |
|
The leaves from the trees all dance in the breeze |
|
And float on the ripples |
|
We're deep in a spell as nightingales tell |
|
Of roses and dew |
|
The memory of this moment of love |
|
Will haunt me forever |
|
A tropical moon, a sleepy lagoon |
|
And you |
