verse 1
Cm Cm
Watch the sea so bright and lovely,
Dm7 Cm
Waking depths of tender feeling,
Ab Fm Gm
Like to you of whom I'm thinking
Gm7 Cm
Till I'm dreaming though awake
C Dm7
See the lovely dewy garden,
G7 C
Breathing scent of orange blossoms;
C Dm7
Such a sweet and gracious perfume
G7 C
That it enters in one's heart.
Chorus
C Dm7
And you say "Good-bye, I'm going,"
G7 Ab
This poor heart of mine you're leaving,
Ab G Cm
Leaving this fair land of loving,

Can you bear to not return?

Then leave me not,

Nor give to me this torment,

Come back to Sorrento,

That I may live.

But may never find the like.

See the Sirens all around you,

Looking on you so enchanted;

And so dearly do they love you

That they fain would kiss your lips.
