When a pale September moon was shining,
Once a gypsy serenade began;
Now alone, my aching heart is pining,
Following your wandering caravan.
Romany,
We saw the camp fire gleaming,
Romany,
That night my heart was dreaming.
Music so tender
Made me surrender,
Lost in your gypsy love song;
I'm broken hearted
Now you've departed,
Leaving me
Just a melody.
Romany,
Though other arms enfold you,
Romany,
No other love will hold you.
Think of me when you are far away
And I'll remember you and your love song;
You are my Romany.
Romany,
Though other arms enfold you,
Romany,
No other love will hold you.
Think of me when you are far away
And I'll remember you and your love song;
You are my Romany.
