Shanghai breezes

       It's funny how its sound as if you're right next door 
       When you're really have the world away 
       I just can't seem to find the words I'm looking for 
       To say the thing that I wanna say 
       I can't remember when I felt so close to you 
       It's almost more than I can bear 
       And though I seem a haft a million miles from you 
       You are in my heart and leaving there 

       And the moon and the stars are the same won't you see 
       It's the same old sun up in the sky 
       And your voice in my ears is like heaven to me 
       Like the breezes here in old Shanghai 

       There are lovers who walk hand in hand in the park 
       And lovers who walk all alone 
       There are lovers who lie unafraid in the dark 
       And lovers who long for home 
       I couldn't leave you even if I wanted to 
       You're in my dreams and always near 
       And especially when I sing the song I wrote for you 
       You are in my heart and leaving there 

       And the moon and the stars are the same won't you see 
       It's the same old sun up in the sky 
       And your face in my dreams is like heaven to me 
       Like the breezes here in old Shanghai 

       Shanghai breezes cool and clearing, evening's sweet courage 
       Shanghai breezes soft and gentle, remind me of your tenderness 

       And the moon and the stars are the same won't you see 
       It's the same old sun up in the sky 
       And your love and my life is like heaven to me 
       Like the breezes here in old Shanghai 
       It's like the breezes here in old Shanghai
