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
|
|
