BENEATH A BANYAN TREE

Beneath a banyan tree,
was fulfillment of a tropical dream of love.
You were as sweet to me as sweet could be.
Remember there was springtime in the air?
Beneath a banyan tree,
I could count the thrills by counting the stars above.
For you were mine that night, divine that night.
Remember there was springtime in the air?
High up in the sky,
the proverbial stars and the moon
seemed to be bringing the dawn too soon.
Waves along the shore
whispered love is the same as of yore
and will continue forever more.
Beneath the banyan tree
lovelight lingered till the sun was a golden flare.
And you were mine that night, divine that night.
Remember there was springtime in the air?
(music interlude)
High up in the sky,
the proverbial stars and the moon
seemed to be bringing the dawn too soon.
Waves along the shore
whispered love is the same as of yore
and will continue forever more.
Beneath the banyan tree
lovelight lingered till the sun was a golden flare.
And you were mine that night, divine that night.
Remember there was springtime in the air?
