Lyrics for Flamingo

Flamingo, like a flame in the sky Flying over the island To my lover nearby Flamingo, with your tropical hue For it's you I rely on And the love that is true The wind sings a song to you as you go The song that I hear below The murmuring heart Flamingo, when the sun meets the sea Say farewell to my lover And hasten to me Ah, oh, ah, oh, oh, oh Flamingo, when the sun meets the sea Say farewell to my lover And hasten to me Ah, oh, oh, oh, oh, ah
