Where the golden sunbeams
And the lazy land dreams
All the happy years thru
You'll belong to me and I to you
Come with me where moonbeams
Light Tahitian skies
And the starlit waters
Linger in you eyes
Native hills are calling
To them we belong
And we'll cheer each other
With the pagan love song
******
As recorded by The Andrews Sisters:
Bah-dah-dah-dum
Bah-dah-dah-bah-dah-dah-dah-lah-dah-lah-lah-dah-lah-bah
Come with me when moonbeams, hah-hah
Light Tahitian skies
And the starlit waters
Linger in your eyes
Native hills are calling, hah-hah
To them we belong
And we'll cheer each other
With the pagan love song
Come with me when moonbeams
Light Tahitian skies, oh those skies
And the starlit waters
Linger in your... Oh! Pagan!
(Orchestral Break)
Dah-lah-dah-lah-dah-lah
Der-rum-dah-lah-dah-lah-dah-lah-dah-dah-lah
Dah-lah-dah-lum-doo-ooh-dle-doo-dah-dah
Boo-lah-doo-lah-dah-lah-dah, lah-doo-lah-dah
Doo-lah-doo-dah-lah-doo-lah-dah-dah
Oh, come with me
Where the moonbeams
Light up the skies
Shine in your eyes
Where we belong
Aaaaaahhhhhhhhh
Pagan love song
South Sea islands
I hear them call
To you, my all
And now I sing
Tah-dah-dah-lah-dah-lah-dah-lah
Tah-dah-dah-lah-dah-lah-dah-laaaaaaaaaaaaah
