Text: Cliff Richard. La Gonave.
La Gonave, I see your mist
La Gonave, well I know you're kissed
By the same sea of trouble that stretches back home
La Gonave, you've got troubles of your own
Yes, I got troubles, won't you come on and see
I got my needs just follow me
But they gonna ease by and by
If you tell all the people that it's no lie
You only came for forty eight hours
Didn't realize how useless I was
Came to you for the nation sells lies
Lord knows, but I still feel helpless
La Gonave, I don't feel good
La Gonave, do you think I should
Turn my back and walk away
La Gonave, tell me what to say
If I'd been at home, would you telephone me
I'm situated across the sea
But it's a small world from any point of view
Spare a thought, this could have been you
You shook my senses, took my time
Froze my feeling, broke my mind
La Gonave, you've played your part
La Gonave, you sure got heart
Didn't leave my heart in San Francisco
Didn't want to stay in Omaha
Never got fooled by New York City
But I lost my heart to La Gonave
Didn't leave my heart in San Francisco
Didn't want to stay in Omaha
Never got fooled by New York City
But I lost my heart to La Gonave
Didn't leave my heart in San Francisco
Didn't want to stay in Omaha
Never got fooled by New York City
But I lost my heart to La Gonave
La Gonave, well I know you're kissed
By the same sea of trouble that stretches back home
La Gonave, you've got troubles of your own
Yes, I got troubles, won't you come on and see
I got my needs just follow me
But they gonna ease by and by
If you tell all the people that it's no lie
You only came for forty eight hours
Didn't realize how useless I was
Came to you for the nation sells lies
Lord knows, but I still feel helpless
La Gonave, I don't feel good
La Gonave, do you think I should
Turn my back and walk away
La Gonave, tell me what to say
If I'd been at home, would you telephone me

But it's a small world from any point of view

La Gonave, you've played your part
La Gonave, you sure got heart
Didn't leave my heart in San Francisco

Never got fooled by New York City
But I lost my heart to La Gonave
Didn't leave my heart in San Francisco
Didn't want to stay in Omaha
Never got fooled by New York City
But I lost my heart to La Gonave
Didn't leave my heart in San Francisco
Didn't want to stay in Omaha
Never got fooled by New York City
But I lost my heart to La Gonave
