On The Isle Of May 1940

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 19 Sep 2003

You were lovely,
I was lonely,
It was springtime,
and we fell in love.

We strolled along through the heather,
and it was June,
June on the Isle of May.
Your lips were sweet as the heather,
Love was in bloom,
there on the Isle of May.
Close in your arms heaven opened its doors,
Then like a fool I sailed away.
But our love will bring us together
when it is June,
June on The Isle of May.

We strolled along through the heather,
and it was June,
June on the Isle of May.
Your lips were sweet as the heather,
Love was in bloom,
there on the Isle of May.
Close in your arms heaven opened its doors,
Then like a fool I sailed away.
But our love will bring us together
when it is June,
June on The Isle of May.
