When the swallows come back to Capistrano lyrics

When the swallows come back to Capistrano

That's the day you promised to come back to me

When you whispered, "Farewell", in Capistrano

Was the day the swallow flew out to sea

All the mission bells will ring

The chapel choir will sing

The happiness you'll bring

Will live in my memory

When the swallows come back to Capistrano

That's the day I pray that you'll come back to me

When the swallows come back to Capistrano

That's the day I pray that you'll come back to me.
