Comes the sun Heaven's rays And the stormers are gone And the white flag is raised Golden days And the city is in love again And we dream In a daze And we drink and we dance And we throw cares away Lovers gaze And the city is in love
Chorus: My heart was so dark dear With you not here And the cold wind Is all that would meet me at my door I waved goodbye and wished you well Life's a carousel When it brings you round It never, never tells When you'll find yourself in love again Love and love again The merry-go-round never ends I waved goodbye
Bitter rose sour plum And the birds sing to soothe Where the roses are stung Love's begun And the city is in love again There's a spell on the air And the sailors all drift And get lost in her hair Hearts are bare And the soldiers come home again
My eyes they grew dark dear With you not here And the cold wind Is all that would dance me Round my floor
