Song Lyrics

Once I, yes I had a love so true
His skin so dark, yet his eyes so blue.
His eyes like fire in the night!
Like a flame ever glowing bright
Where are you on a starry night?
When will you come on back to me?

We loved each other a summer through
The days went by, you know how they do.
And all those nights by your side
Knowing surely it couldn't be
Come the morning one day and we
We've been gone one and one his way.

We talked together for hours a day,
Discussing plans, things we'd want to say.
To change the world go our way
Find our place just to hideaway!
We could go, yes we run away
We would find, find our hideaway
Today away hideaway.

As storm came up on that rainy day.

The sky goes dark as I heard him say:
Yes, I'll be back, never fear!
I'll be back, just you wait, my dear.
So I wait, yes I wait, my dear.
Will I ever see him again? Again?

We talked together for hours a day,
Discussing plans, things we'd want to say.
To change the world go our way
Find our place just to hideaway!
We could go, yes we run away
We would find, find our hideaway
Today away hideaway.

Once I, yes I had a love so true
His skin so dark, yet his eyes so blue.
His eyes like fire in the night!
Like a flame ever glowing bright
Where are you on a starry night?
When will you come on back to me?
