She was sweet as a rose at the dawning, But somehow fate hadn't meant her for me; Though I sailed with the tide in the morning, Still my heart's on the Isle of Capri. (Jimmy Kennedy)

She was sweet as a rose at the dawning, But somehow fate hadn't meant her for me; Though I sailed with the tide in the morning, Still my heart's on the Isle of Capri.
