Banjolin Girl

Close your eyes

Don’t be afraid

Don’t let you down

I know that times can get too hard

I’m by your side

You think you’re wrong

Just for believing in her tale

But girl, don’t let your magic fade and

Leave your mind

Oh, little banjolin

Sometimes good luck is on your side

But my little banjolin

This time you’ll have to play your part

Oh, our little banjolin

You’ll find the way to start again

Fly away

Like a little leaf

That’s falling from the tree

Where every single memory was born

You took a chance

You’re not to blame

You gave it all

But there’s no winner if it’s rigged

Right from the start

Oh, little banjolin

Sometimes good luck is on your side

But my little banjolin

This time you’ll have to play your part

Oh, our little banjolin

You’ll find the way, just take your aim

The fruits from the icebox

Your song left undone

Remember the poem?

The plums are just gone

The ruins next to Naples

My film still unseen

Remember the pizza?

Yet we’ve never been

If you don’t feel brave

Take it slowly
