Once I, yes I had a love so true
His skin so dark, yet his eyes so blue.
His eyes like fire in the night!
Like a flame ever glowing bright...
Where are you on a starry night?
When will you come on back to me?

We loved each other a summer through
The days went by, you know how they do.
And all those nights by your side
Knowing sureley it couldn't be
Come the morning one day and we -
We've been gone one and one his way.

We talked together for hours a day,
Discussing plans, things we'd want to say.
To change the world go our way
Find our place just to hideaway!
We could go, yes we run away -
We would find, find our hideaway -
Today - Away - Hideaway.

As storm came up on that rainy day.

The sky goes dark as I heard him say:
Yes, I'll be back, never fear!
I'll be back, just you wait, my dear.
So I wait, yes I wait, my dear.
Will I ever see him again? - Again?

We talked together for hours a day,
Discussing plans, things we'd want to say.
To change the world go our way
Find our place just to hideaway!
We could go, yes we run away -
We would find, find our hideaway -
Today - Away - Hideaway.

Once I, yes I had a love so true
His skin so dark, yet his eyes so blue.
His eyes like fire in the night!
Like a flame ever glowing bright...
Where are you on a starry night?
When will you come on back to me?
