Amapola - Doris Day, Les Brown & His Orchestra, Ronnie Chase

A boy found a dream upon a distant shore

A maid with a way of whisp’ring «si senor.»

Each night while guitars would softly play

The tune seemed to dance 'round the words that he’d say:

Amapola, my pretty little poppy

You’re like that lovely flow’r so sweet and heavenly

Since I found you, my heart is wrapped around you

And loving you, it seems to beat a Rhapsody

Amapola, the pretty little poppy

Must copy it’s endearing charm from you

Amapola, Amapola, how I long to hear you say «I love you.»

The boy left his love upon a distant shore

And sailed from the one his arms were longing for

He vowed he’d return one sunny day

Once more to repeat what his heart had to say
