First
Verse
Love awaits me in a distant land, Siam,
Soon I'm going' to start my caravan, I am Speeding, thro'
the night her call I'm heeding, I can see her standing where
our love began in Siam.
Second
Verse
When the nightingale has brought his song
to you, Then you'll know my coming won't be long, I'm true,
Gleaming, like the stars in your eyes are beaming, You are
waiting where the peacock spreads his fan, In Siam.
Chorus
Dimpled shadows that play, 'Neath the cool
mountains spray, Mocks the light in her eyes, Finding there
a sweet paradise, With her soft jeweled hands, She is weaving
the strands, That shall bind loves demands When I am in Siam.

First
Verse
Cupid's dart, pierced my heart; when I
first met you. Now it seems, My love dreams, Have at last
come true. No one yet, That I've met Thrilled me with a glance;
No other one, 'Neath the sun, Stands a chance.
Second
Verse
Hours fly, when you're nigh; angel from
above. When you're gone, They seem long, Proving I'm in love.
Let's away, Don't delay, Apple of my eye; I'll live for you,
Love you true, This is why:
Chorus
Just because you're you, That's why I love
you. Just because you're you, what more can I say? I've lost
my appetite Can't sleep a wink at night My mind's not working
right; And you made me this way. Something in your style won
me completely; That I'd fall so deep in love I never knew.
And still the reason's very simple, it's not your smile or
dimple, It's just because you're you.

First
Verse
I never knew, I would miss you, Until you
went away, Now I can see, what you were to me, My heart just
seems to say:
Second
Verse
Hope seems to say, There'll come a day
Your smiles again I'll see, My love is true, and you know
it too, Come back, Come back to me.
Chorus
I know what it means to be lonesome, I
know how it feels to be blue, I know what it means to long
in my dreams, for someone, for someone, I've sighed and I've
cried since we parted, There's no one knows what I've gone
through; I'd give all that I own, just to have you back home,
I'm lonesome, so lonesome for you.
