MAIMOONA
©1998 - music and words by John R. Black, ℗ 42nd Street Music Seattle
Oh I went to Italy to visit a friend
She said come to stay in the mountains
So I did
Oh we talked and we drank espresso
And she painted a picture for me
And we laughed
Her name flows like the flowing river
She laughs like a child, in a dream
Maimoona is her name
Maimoona is her name
Oh I love the mountains and Italian nights
And the wind whistling through the trees
How beautiful it is
Could it be the world will be at peace
Could it be there will be no war
I hope so
Let our dreams flow like the river
Let us laugh like a child in a dream
Maimoona is her name
Maimoona is her name
Come with me to visit Maimoona
I will never forget her name
I will never forget her name
