More than 10 years after Eric Coates wrote and premiered his orchestral piece By the Sleepy Lagoon, Jack Lawrence set words to the melody and published the song under the shortened title “The Sleepy Lagoon.”
Sleepy Lagoon Lyrics
A sleepy lagoon
A tropical moon
And two on an island
A sleepy lagoon
And two hearts in tune
In some lullaby land
The fireflies' gleam
Reflects in the stream
They sparkle and shimmer
A star from on high
Falls out of the sky
And slowly grows dimmer
The leaves from the trees
All dance in the breeze
And float on the ripples
We're deep in a spell
As nightingales tell
Of roses and dew
The memory of this moment of love
Will haunt me forever
A tropical moon, a sleepy lagoon
And you
