Looked up one morn and there you were,
Long way from home.
Down by the ocean, you took my hand,
Long time ago.
Caravans of clouds crossed the sky,
Caravans of clouds passed me by.
Cardamon, saffron, myrrh,
Slowly passed me by.
You are my love, my true dear friend,
On this spacious earth.

Lillicoy, Oh My Joy
Lillicoy, oh my joy,
Guava my darlin'.
Went down to find my love in the garden,
Papaya, oolala,
Guava my darlin'.
Underneath the banyan tree,
There he slept so peacefully.
Banana, nanana,
Guava my darlin'.
It twas in the mornin' mist,
When we first began to kiss.
Prickly pear, do I dare,
Guava my darlin'.
Do ya, do ya, love me true?
Oh yes, my darlin',
