Al-Di-La

(album: Skeeter Sings Standards - 1965)

La la la la la la la la la...

Al-di-la means you are far above me very far
Al-di-la as distant as the lovely evening star
Where you walk flowers bloom, when you smile all the gloom turns to sunshine
And my heart opens wide, when you're gone it fades inside and seems to have died

Al-di-la, I wondered as I drifted, where you were
Al-di-la, the fog around me lifted, there you were
And the kiss that I gave was the love I have saved for the lifetime
Then I knew, all of you, was completely mine

And the kiss that I gave was the love I have saved for the lifetime
Then I knew, all of you, was completely mine

La la la la la la la la la...
