- Verse:
- Ev'ry morning mem'ries stray,
- Across the sea where flying
fishes play.
- And as the night is falling,
I find that I'm recalling,
- That blissful all enthralling
day.
-
- Chorus:
- I found my love in Avalon,
- Beside the bay.
- I left my love in Avalon,
- And sail'd away.
- I dream of her and Avalon,
- From dusk till dawn.
- And so I think I'll travel
on,
- To Avalon.
