Ramona
Don Estelle Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where the mountains high
Seem to kiss the sky
Someone is out yonder, o'er the hills
Waiting patiently, Waiting just for me
Ramona, I hear the mission bells above
Ramona, they're ringing out our song of love
To always remember the rambling rose you wear in your hair
Ramona, when day is done you'll hear my call
Ramona, we'll meet beside the water fall
I dread the dawn when I awake to find you gone
Ramona I need you my own
Let's wander out yonder o'er the hills
By a babbling brook
Where we'll find a nook
To build our own love nest, o'er the hills
Darling of my heart, Never more to part
Ramona, I hear the mission bells above
Ramona, they're ringing out our song of love
I press you, caress you, and bless the day you taught me to care
To always remember the rambling rose you wear in your hair
Ramona, when day is done you'll hear my call
Ramona, we'll meet beside the water fall
I dread the dawn when I awake to find you gone
Ramona I need you my own

I wander out yonder o'er the hills
I am walking alone in the hills
Where the mountains high
There are tall mountains nearby
Seem to kiss the sky
They are so tall that they appear to be touching the sky
Someone is out yonder, o'er the hills
There is someone waiting for me in the distance
Waiting patiently, waiting just for me
They are eagerly waiting for my arrival
Ramona, I hear the mission bells above
I can hear the church bells ringing in the distance

By a babbling brook

We will create our own private place to be together
Darling of my heart, Never more to part
You are the love of my life and I never want to be apart from you
