Isle of Capri Songtext
von Al Bowlly with Ray Noble & His Orchestra

′Twas on the Isle of Capri that I found her
Beneath the shade of an old walnut tree
Oh, I can still see the flowers blooming 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 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
′Twas goodbye on the Isle of Capri
