On my way
 Passing thru I heard a voice
 Whisper good evening
 I turned to a shadow
 And saw her there
 So all alone
 She had those sad china eyes
 That sang each time she smiled
 Ah, but the song
 It seemed to linger
 So long it deepened
 My love for her
 Until she called me near
 And then we waltzed to our heart beat
 All around
 The sea was swaying
 The breeze was praying
 Never to leave her alone
 Alone
 Oh, the time just slipped on by
 And with the time
 So did our love
 Ah, her every move
 Just like a fever
 Just like a fever
 Burnin' inside would not leave me
