Mandolina Vine

We ran down to the water Where the morning sun had washed away the rain

She sounded like a whip-poor-will Singing her own name There were mermaids

at the border We'd all lost track of time Nothing was as beautiful

As the Mandolina Vine Catch the falling starlight Watch the night

grow dim Tried hard not to notice How you noticed him

There were bouncers in the doorway And no one crossed the line Nothing was as

beautiful as the Mandolina Vine Mandolina, I still see

ya Reaching up to the sunshine Nothing was as beautiful
