Was on the Isle of Capri, that I found her
Beneath the shade, of an old walnut tree
She was as sweet as the flowers, blooming 'round her
Where we met, on the Isle of Capri
She was as sweet, as the rose in the dawning
But somehow fate, haven't meant her for me
And so I sailed, with the tide in the dawning
Still my heart, on the Isle of Capri
Summertime is nearly over
Blue Italian skies above
I said, "lady, I'm a rover
Can you spare a sweet word of 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
So goodbye, to the Isle of Capri
Was on the Isle of Capri, that I found her
Beneath the shade, of an old walnut tree
She was as sweet as the flowers, blooming 'round her
Where we met, on the Isle of Capri
