MADE POPULAR BY THE INK SPOTS IN THE 1940's AND PAT BOONE IN THE 1950's
(WHEN THE SWALLOWS COME BACK TO CAPISTRANO)
WHEN THE SWALLOWS COME BACK TO CAPISTRANO,
THAT'S THE DAY YOU PROMISED YOU'D COME BACK TO ME,
WHEN YOU WHISPERED FAREWELL IN CAPISTRANO,
'TWAS THE DAY THE SWALLOWS FLEW OUT TO THE SEA,
ALL THE MISSION BELLS WILL RING,
THE CHAPEL CHOIR WILL SING,
THE HAPPINESS YOU'LL BRING,
WILL LIVE IN MY MEMORY,
WHEN THE SWALLOWS COME BACK TO CAPISTRANO,
THAT'S THE DAY,
I PRAY THAT YOU'LL COME BACK TO ME
WHEN THE SWALLOWS COME BACK TO CAPISTRANO,
HAPPINESS WILL SURELY REIGN AROUND MY HEART,
AND TOGETHER WE'LL BE IN CAPISTRANO,
IN MY ARMS YOU'L ALWAYS BE,
NEVER TO PART,
WHEN THE ALTER CANDLES BURN,
A VISION I CAN SEE,
IF YOU SHOULD NOT RETURN,
ALONE I EVER SHALL BE,
WHEN THE SWALLOWS COME BACK TO CAPISTRANO,
IN THE AIR MY PRAYER IS "DO COME BACK TO ME".
(ADDITIONAL WORDS BY CHARLES DUNN)
