Shanghai Breezes

Its funny how you sound as if youre right next door
when youre really half a world away

I just cant seem to find the words Im looking for
to say the things that I want to say

I cant remember when I felt so close to you
its almost more than I can bear

And though I seem a half a million miles from you
youre in my heart and living there
And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see
its the same old sun up in the sky
And your voice in my ear 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

Oh I couldnt leave you even if I wanted to
youre in my dreams and always near

And especially when I sing the songs I wrote for you
youre in my heart and living there
And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see
its 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
evenings sweet caress

Shanghai breezes soft and gentle
remind me of your tenderness

And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see
its the same old sun up in the sky
And your love in my life is like heaven to me
like the breezes here in old Shanghai

And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see
its the same old sun up in the sky
And your love in my life is like heaven to me
like the breezes here in old Shanghai
