Ilo 1921

I am on my way
back again to Madagascar Bay
I'll be feeling gay
when I hear
the rolling billows sway
I can see you there,
like an Oriental Venus fair
and I wouldn't care
if tomorrow would find me there.
For I'm like the ocean,
just like the ocean blue,
filled with devotion
and with emotion too.

Ilo, I am thinking of the day
Ilo, down on Madagascar Bay,
You looked to me like Neptune's daughter
standing alone there by the water,
your eyes appealed so,
they made me feel so,
Sentimental...
Oriental Ilo
tho' you're many miles away
I know you are with me all the day
Ilo, I'll be with you in a while,
Oh! For I want to tell you, Ilo,
I love you.

I know you are with me all the day

Oh! For I want to tell you, Ilo,
I love you.
