Lyrics
There’s a fairyland, there’s a fairyland
Far away on a bay, oh! so fair
Like a paradise, like a paradise
Of my dreams, it still seems I am there
I see Vesuvius glow, I see old Naples below
When the shadows fall, I can see it all
Oh! so plain, oh! so plain, once again
Chorus
Panorama Bay
When I’m far away from you
That’s the only time
That this heart of mine is blue
‘Twas on your golden sand
I used to hold her hand
On a mandolin, little mandolin she played
With the moon above
How I learned to love that maid
Like you sometimes I’m blue
Panorama Bay
When I’m far away from you
