Lyrics
Shanghai'd in Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sail across horizons as the ocean sails towards the eastern sun,
On into a world where sunken dreams are lost in time and never won,
In search of love down Wanchai Way I did run,
Into a sanpan world the night seemed so young,
Then a voice called out for love and I was gone.
CHORUS
And I was, Shanghaid in Love.
Yes I was, Shanghaid in Love.
And like a child I was hooked in love,
Shanghaid in Love.
Through the night she gave me love and love it was a game she played so well,
And though I never knew her name the memories of her love that I can tell,
Down Wanchei Way I lost my heart don't know why,
Those eastern eyes were made to torment a guy,
She gave me love but in the morning she was gone.
CHORUS
And I was, Shanghaid in Love.
Yes I was, Shanghaid in Love.
And like a child I was hooked in love,
Shangheid in Love.
CHORUS
And I was, Shanghaid in Love.
Yes I was, Shanghaid in Love.
And like a child I was hooked in love,
Shanghaid in Love
