Sleepy Lagoon

[The Lone Liberal]

Harry James working that great horn. Makes you wonder what to hell happened that we lost all the promise of greatness that was America.

SLEEPY LAGOON
Harry James
- words by Jack Lawrence, music by Eric Coates

A sleepy lagoon, a tropical moon and two on an island
A sleepy lagoon and two hearts in tune in some lullabyland
The fireflies' gleam reflects in the stream
They sparkle and shimmer
A star from on high falls out of the sky
And slowly grows dimmer
The leaves from the trees all dance in the breeze
And float on the ripples
We're deep in a spell as nightingales tell
Of roses and dew
The memory of this moment of love
Will haunt me forever
A tropical moon, a sleepy lagoon
And you
