Lightly Latin - 1966

Little Boat  ( O Barquinho )Perry Como ~ Mr. Saturday Night!
My little boat is like a note
Bouncin' merrily along
Hear it splashing up a song
The sails are white
The sky is bright
Headin' out into the blue
With a crew of only two
Where we can share
Love's salty air
On a little paradise that's afloat
Not a care have we
In my little boat

The wind is still
We feel the thrill
Of a voyage heaven-bound
Though we only drift around
Warmed by the sun
Two hearts as one
Beating with enchanted bliss
Melting in each other's kiss

When daylight ends and slyly sends
Little stars that twinkle brightly above
It's goodbye to my little boat of love . . .

< instrumental break >
The wind is still
We feel the thrill
Of a voyage heaven-bound
Though we only drift around
Warmed by the sun
Two hearts as one
Beating with enchanted bliss
Melting in each other's kiss

When daylight ends and slyly sends
Little stars that twinkle brightly above
It's goodbye to my little boat of love . . .
Goodbye little boat . . .
Goodbye little boat . . .
