Araby (1915)
Berlin Irving [chorus:] Araby When shades of night appear I seem to hear you calling
Araby You seem to beckon and I reckon I'll be hurrying back again
Seems to me A maiden's face appears I see her tears are falling Falling because I left her there
That's why I long to be Where all those happy faces Wait for me Beside the fair oasis
Soon, you'll see Within a caravan An Arab man will take me Over the desert back to Araby
[2nd verse:] Someday you'll find me in Araby Where someone's waiting to marry me I can't forget the day we parted She said I left her broken hearted I helped her on to a camel's back Before she rode away She made me promise that I would come back I'll keep my promise someday
