Shanghai Breezes lyrics

It's funny how you sound as if you're right next door

When you're really half a world away

I just can't seem to find the words I'm looking for

To say the things I want to say

I can't remember when I felt so close to you

It's almost more than I can bear

Though I seem a half a million miles from you

You are in my heart and living there

And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see

The same old sun up in the sky

Your voice in my ear is like heaven to me

Like the breezes here in old Shanghai

There are lovers who walk hand in hand in the park

And lovers who walk all alone

There are lovers who lie unafraid in the dark

And lovers who long for home

I couldn't leave you even if I wanted to

You're in my dreams and always near

And especially when I sing the songs I wrote for you

You are in my heart and living there

And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see

It's the same old sun up in the sky

And your face in my dreams is like heaven to me

Like the breezes here in old Shanghai

Shanghai breezes, cool and clearing

Evening's sweet caress

Shanghai breezes, soft and gentle

Remind me of your tenderness

And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see

It's the same old sun up in the sky

And your love in my life is like heaven to me

Like the breezes here in old Shanghai

And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see

It's the same old sun up in the sky

And your love in my life is like heaven to me

Like the breezes here in old Shanghai

Just like the breezes here in old Shanghai
