Eric Coates - Sleepy Lagoon

A sleepy lagoon,

a tropical moon

And two on an island

A sleepy lagoon

and two hearts in tune

In some lullaby land

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.

The memory of

this moment of love

will haunt me forever.

A sleepy lagoon,

a tropical moon,

and you.
