Ramona
Mantovani His Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wander out yonder o'er the hills
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
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

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

Seem to kiss the sky

Someone is out yonder, o'er the hills
There is someone waiting for me in the distance, over the hills


Waiting patiently, Waiting just for me
This person is waiting for me with great patience and eagerness

Let us go out into the countryside and explore together


By a babbling brook

We will discover a secluded spot to be alone together


To build our own love nest, o'er the hills
We will create our own special place to experience love in the countryside


Darling of my heart, Never more to part
You are the love of my life, and we will never be apart
