Lyrics
Painted carousel
Village steeple bell
I remember well
Capri in May
Mandolins and wine
Eager lips were mine
It was so divine
Capri in May
Nights beside the sea
Still are clear to me
Oh it seems to be
Just yesterday
Each little dream we made
For a while they stayed
Then I watched them fade
And fly away
Through tears of deep regret
I can see you yet
How could I forget
Capri in May
