-------------------------------------------
On a little street in Singapore,
We'd meet beside a lotus-covered
door,
A veil of moonlight on her
lonely face,
How pale the hands that held me
in embrace.
My sails tonight are filled with
perfume of Shalimar,
And temple bells will guide me
to the shore.
And then I'll hold her in my
arms, and love the way I loved before,
On a little street in Singapore.
