Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh So echoes of sweet love notes Gently fall through the forest stillness As the waiting Indian lover's call When the lone lagoon stirs in the spring Welcoming home some Swannee white wing When the maiden moon riding the sky Gathers her star eyed dream Children nigh That is the time of the moon and the year When love dreams to Indian maiden appear And this is the song that they hear When I'm calling you will you answer too? That means I offer my love to you To be your own If you refuse me what shall I do? Just waiting all alone But if when you hear my love call ringing clear And I hear your answering echo So dear, then I will know our love will come true You'll belong to me, I'll belong to you
