Sunlight dances on the sea
tender thoughts occur to me
i have often seen your eyes
in the nighttime when i dream

when i pass a garden fair
and the scent is in the air
in my mind a dream awakes
and my heart begins to break

but you said goodbye to me
now all i can do is grieve
can it be that you forgot?
darling forget me not!

please don't say farewell
and leave this heart that's broken
come back to sorrento
so i can mend
