Lyrics
Night time, a yellow moon is beaming
And tropic stars are dreaming
Above the Caribbean
Somewhere I hear a tender love song
A Caribbean love song playing
Softly saying
Chorus
Come, come where the moon shines
With magic enchantment
High up in the blue sky above you
Come, come where the scented breeze
Caresses you with a lovely melody
While my heart is whisp’ring, “I love you”
Come to my arms where you belong
And life will always be a Caribbean love song
