Lyrics for Araby 1915 by Irving Berlin:
| | | Artist: | Irving Berlin |
| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | Araby 1915 | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 77 | | | | Lyrics: | 1st verse:]
Tonight I'm dreaming of Araby
That's where my dreams seem to carry
me
Where ev'rything is Oriental
And ev'ryone is sentimental
There in the shade of the
shelt'ring palms
I met a maiden fair
I long to hold her gently in my arms
Oh, how I
wish I was there
[chorus:]
Araby
When shades of night appear
I seem to
hear you calling
Araby
You seem to beckon and I reckon
I'll be hurrying back
again
Seems to me
A maiden's face appears
I see her tears are
falling
Falling because I left her there
That's why I long to be
Where all
those happy faces
Wait for me
Beside the fair oasis
Soon, you'll
see
Within a caravan
An Arab man will take me
Over the desert back to
Araby
[2nd verse:]
Someday you'll find me in Araby
Where someone's waiting to
marry me
I can't forget the day we parted
She said I left her broken hearted
I helped
her on to a camel's back
Before she rode away
She made me promise that I would come
back
I'll keep my promise someday | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
