Amapola (English Songtext
von Caterina Valente

A boy found a dream upon a distant shore
A maid with a way of whisp′ring "si senor."
Each night while guitars would softly play,
The tune seemed to dance 'round the words that he′d say:


Amapola, my pretty little poppy
You're like that lovely flow'r so sweet and heavenly,
Since I found you, my heart is wrapped around you
And loving you, it seems to beat a Rhapsody.

Amapola, the pretty little poppy
Must copy it′s endearing charm from you.
Amapola, Amapola, how I long to hear you say "I love you."

The boy left his love upon a distant shore
And sailed from the one his arms were longing for.
He vowed he′d return one sunny day,
Once more to repeat what his heart had to say
