Rosalie 1928

Somewhere I know
where lovers go dreaming,
by the sleepy waters
beneath the moon,
Once I was out,
one day about sun down
when the spell was broken
by a lover crooning:

Rosalie
won't you drift
once more with me
in my dream boat for two?
Rosalie,
won't you strum your ukelele
like you used to do?
Just a song at twilight,
float along,
both softly singing,
mem'ries bringing
Rosalie,
won't you drift once more with me
in my dream boat for two?

Rosalie
won't you drift
once more with me
in my dream boat for two?
Rosalie,
won't you strum your ukelele
like you used to do?
Just a song at twilight,
float along,
both softly singing,
mem'ries bringing
Rosalie,
won't you drift once more with me
in my dream boat for two?

When all is still
some time I will wander
to that shady place where
the night birds cry,
When night is near,
maybe I'll hear yonder,
just the same lone singer
'neath the moon still sighing:

Rosalie
won't you drift
once more with me
in my dream boat for two?
Rosalie,
won't you strum your ukelele
like you used to do?
Just a song at twilight,
float along,
both softly singing,
mem'ries bringing
Rosalie,
won't you drift once more with me
in my dream boat for two?

Rosalie
won't you drift
once more with me
in my dream boat for two?
Rosalie,
won't you strum your ukelele
like you used to do?
Just a song at twilight,
float along,
both softly singing,
mem'ries bringing
Rosalie,
won't you drift once more with me
in my dream boat for two?
