Black Hills Country Band Red Moon Over Lugano
I got a postcard from someone I met in Salvatore He said the weather was great he'd been out on the lake And sunning beside it quaint shore When are you coming back, you need to come and relax Share some stories at our sidewalk cafe Shaved chocolate steamed-creamo on your cappuccino Please write me back right away Oh the red moon over lugano Is in my memory, I can't seem to let it go On the cobblestone streets Where lovers would meet I fell in love heart and soul 'Neath the red moon over lugano If I had any sense "d pack up my bags and just leave Fly over the ocean right into the arms of a romance That was waiting for me Ride the funicular to the top of the stars Gaze at Milano as it winked back our way Try to have conversation in English Italiano Or just kiss when we've nothing to say So I picked up my pen and started writing these words back to him "Bon journo mi amore" you're so far away And the chance of a visit is slim That moonlit evening had us both believin' Nothing could keep us apart Some day we'll start over 'neath the red moon in Lugano 'Till then keep me there in your arms
