The Spinners Lamorna song lyrics

I'll sing to you a song, it's about a lady fair,

I met the other evening at the corner of the square.

She had a dark and roving eye, she was a charming rover,

Well we rode all night, in the pale moonlight

way down to Lamorna.

Twas down in Albert square

I never shall forget,

Her eyes they shone like diamonds

and the evening it was wet.

Her hair hung down in curls,

she was a charming rover,

We rode all night,

in the pale moonlight,

way down to Lamorna.

As she got in the cab, I asked her for her name,

And when she gave it me, well, mine it was the same,

So I lifted up her veil, her face was covered over,

And to my surprise, it was my wife,

I took down to Lamorna.

Twas down in Albert square

I never shall forget,

Her eyes they shone like diamonds

and the evening it was wet.

Her hair hung down in curls,

she was a charming rover,

We rode all night,

in the pale moonlight,

way down to Lamorna.

She said, I know you now, I knew you all along,

I knew you in the dark, but I did it for a lark,

And for that lark you'll pay, for the taking of your donah:

You'll pay the fare, for riding there,

way down to Lamorna.

Twas down in Albert square

I never shall forget,

Her eyes they shone like diamonds

and the evening it was wet.

Her hair hung down in curls,

she was a charming rover,

We rode all night,

in the pale moonlight,

way down to Lamorna.
