Once I got a foolish notion to cross that big wide ocean The furure for me didn't look so bright So I signed up with a tanker got on board and raised the anchor Stood and watched the Golden Gate fade out of sight Nineteen days and nights we travelled through the stormy seas we battled Till we land again Australia far away Far from friends and San Francisco and the Miss I thought I miss so Till I stepped ashore of Melbourne that first day But I met Melba from Melbourne she made my heart yearn She made my tears flow like wine She let me kiss her then made me miss her cause Melba could never be mine
So in love but couldn't get her cared so much I couldn't forget her I fell in love just a little bit more and more There I was just like I started all alone and broken hearted I recall the day I left Australian shore I was standin' there and tryin' so hard to keep from cryin' And the more I tried the more my tears would show Then the south breeze seem to whisper hold her close and once more kiss her It was hopeless so I turned away to go But I left Melba from Melbourne she made my heart yearn She made my tears roll like wine She wouldn't leave there I couldn't stay there So Melba could never be mine (Melba could never be mine)Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
