Long days, tall rum
It's Clementine in summer sun
Blue smoke and warm breeze
By the sea, a cool tease
Walk through the city in red
Breaking hearts and turning heads
Three weeks have passed
Calling back at long last
Walk into the sea again
Causing trouble, playing games
Through the waves I hear your name
Summer's young, a burning flame
Be mine when I'm on fire, my Clementine
I'll bear in mind things you said to me
Things you said on that day
Be mine when I'm on fire, my Clementine
My heart's desire
Oh, I know, I know you'll come again someday
Be mine when I'm on fire, my Clementine
My heart's desire
Oh, I know, I know you'll come again someday
Summer's lost and summer's past
We were never meant to last
Black bow of black rain
Won't you say my name?
You go and rain comes
Fade to black, a fading sun
Be mine when I'm on fire, my Clementine
I'll bear in mind things you said to me
Things you said on that day
Be mine when I'm on fire, my Clementine
My heart's desire
Oh, I hoped, I hoped you'd come again someday
Be mine when I'm on fire, my Clementine
My heart's desire
Oh, I hoped, I hoped you'd come again someday
(Clementine, would you be mine?)
(Oh, I'm waiting on something)
(Clementine, would you be mine?)
(Oh, I hoped you'd keep coming)
(Clementine, would you be mine?)
(I've been waiting on something)
(Clementine, would you be mine?)
(Oh, I hoped you'd keep coming)
(Clementine, would you be mine?)
(Oh, I'm waiting on something)
(Clementine, would you be mine?)
(Oh, I hoped you'd keep coming)
Be mine when I'm on fire, my Clementine
I'll bear in mind things you said to me
Things you said on that day
Be mine when I'm on fire, my Clementine
My heart's desire
Oh, I hoped, I hoped you'd come again someday
Be mine when I'm on fire, my Clementine
My heart's desire
Oh, I hoped, I hoped you'd come again someday
Be mine when I'm on fire, my Clementine
My heart's desire
Oh, I hoped, I hoped you'd come again someday
Be mine when I'm on fire, my Clementine
My heart's desire
Oh, I'll bear in mind the things you said that day
Be mine when I'm on fire, my Clementine
I'll bear in mind things you said to me
Things you said to me that day
