Have you ever heard a love song That you didn't under-stand Where you met her in a tea house, On the Island of Japan And have you ever travelled over many thousand miles To see a pretty Gesiha Girl, dressed in Oriental style. (Chorus) They read it in the tealeaves and it's written in the sand I found love by the heart full, in a foreign distant land Tell the home folks that I'm happy With someone that's true, I know I love a pretty Geisha Girl, where the ocean breezes blow. I have stood and watched the sun rise, from the waters of the sea And wondered how much beauty, in this whole world can there be My dreams are all worth dreamin' and it makes my life worthwhile To see my pretty Geisha Girl, dressed in Oriental style.
