Van Morrison - Bonaparte's Retreat lyrics
[Van Morrison - Bonaparte's Retreat lyrics]
Met the girl I love in a town way down in Dixie
Beneath the stars up above, she was the sweetest thing I ever did meet
Then took her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
I kissed her while the guitars played The Bonaparte's Retreat
All the world was bright
When I held her on that night
And I heard her say, "Please, don't you go away."
And then took her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
I kissed her while the big band played The Bonaparte's Retreat
Then I took her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
And I kissed her while the big band played The Bonaparte's Retreat
All the world was bright
I held her on that night
And I heard her say, "Please, don't you go away."
And then took her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
And I kissed her while the big band played The Bonaparte's Retreat
Then took her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
I kissed her while the big band played The Bonaparte's Retreat
The Bonaparte's Retreat
The Bonaparte's Retreat
The Bonaparte's Retreat
Here we go
The Bonaparte's Retreat
Beneath the stars up above, she was the sweetest thing I ever did meet
Then took her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
I kissed her while the guitars played The Bonaparte's Retreat
All the world was bright
When I held her on that night
And I heard her say, "Please, don't you go away."
And then took her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
I kissed her while the big band played The Bonaparte's Retreat
Then I took her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
And I kissed her while the big band played The Bonaparte's Retreat
All the world was bright
I held her on that night
And I heard her say, "Please, don't you go away."
And then took her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
And I kissed her while the big band played The Bonaparte's Retreat
Then took her in my arms
And told her of her many charms
I kissed her while the big band played The Bonaparte's Retreat
The Bonaparte's Retreat
The Bonaparte's Retreat
The Bonaparte's Retreat
Here we go
The Bonaparte's Retreat
