Lyrics

  1. Over worlds, over seas, over desert wastes
    My love is calling thee
    But your steps grow so tired on the rainbow trails
    You weary reaching me
    Morning waits on the brow of the Mahim wood
    Oh! Gypsy come away
    While I dream of thee, the weary world grows gray

Refrain
So follow the rainbow trail
Across the open world
Where love is waiting
And golden dreams come true oo oo oo
Golden dreams come true
The call of the gypsy blood
Has led me endless days
Across the world and back to you

  1. In my eyes is the dusk of the Eastern camps
    Your eyes are Western blue
    But my soul calls to yours
    I have wandered far
    To search the world for you
    Come to me Western blue, eyes of black
    And look toward the sinking sun
    When your lips drink mine
    Then East and West are one
