On Green Dolphin Street - Turtle Island Quartet, Paquito D'Rivera

It seems like a dream

Yet I know it happened

A man, a maid, a kiss, and then goodbye

Romance was the theme

And we were the players

I never think of this without a sigh

Lover, one lovely day

Love came planning to stay

Green Dolphin Street supplied the setting

The setting for nights beyond forgetting

And through these moments apart

Memories live in my heart

When I recall the love I found on,

I could kiss the ground on,

Green Dolphin Street
