Intro:
`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
Bridge
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 lovely meatball on her finger
Twas goodbye at the Villa Capri
