Shadows on the Swanee

Harold Spina, Joe Young (Lyricist), Johnny Burke

[Verse 1]
Shadows on the Swanee
In the evenin' by the moonlight, lovers everywhere
How I wish that I were there
Among those shadows on the Swanee
Just to sing a Southern ballad, underneath the Southern sky
As I did in days gone by

[Verse 2]
Why did I wander so far away
From all my sweethearts seen
Never thought that I'd be lonesome
But now I know just what it means

[Bridge]
Longing, how I'm longing
To be walkin' with my sweetie
Then there'd be two more
Shadows on the Swanee shore

[Verse 3]
Why ain't I sleeping? All my thoughts are leaping
There's a craving deep in me
Feel so foresaken, I just lie awake and
Through a sleepless night I see
Shadows on that Swanee

[Interlude]
Getting back to some more shadows on that Swanee

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Bridge]
Longing, how I'm longing
To be walkin' with my sweetie
Then there'd be two more
Shadows on that Swanee shore

[Outro]
Mmm-bop, mmm-bop, mmm-bop, mmm-bop, mmm
