Helen O'Connell - Amapola lyrics

A boy found a dream upon a distant shore A maid with a way of whisp'ring "si senor." Each night while guitars would softly play The tune seemed to dance 'round the words that he'd say: Amapola, my pretty little poppy You're like that lovely flow'r so sweet and heavenly Since I found you, my heart is wrapped around you And loving you, it seems to beat a Rhapsody Amapola, the pretty little poppy Must copy it's endearing charm from you Amapola, Amapola, how I long to hear you say "I love you." The boy left his love upon a distant shore And sailed from the one his arms were longing for He vowed he'd return one sunny day Once more to repeat what his heart had to say
