Jay & The Americans – Cara Mia – 1965

Lyrics

Verse 1
Cara Mia, why must we say goodbye?
Each time we part, my heart wants to die
Darling, hear my prayer, Cara Mia fair
I’ll love you more each day, I swear

Chorus
Cara Mia, don’t let this be the end
My heart is yours, my love will never bend
You’re all I need, my love, my life, my friend
Cara Mia, my love will never end

Verse 2
When you’re away, the world seems cold and gray
The sun don’t shine, the flowers don’t sway
The birds don’t sing, the bells don’t chime
Without you, my love, time stands still

Chorus
Cara Mia, don’t let this be the end
My heart is yours, my love will never bend
You’re all I need, my love, my life, my friend
Cara Mia, my love will never end

Bridge
I’ll wait for you, my love, through thick and thin
Until the day our love will win
I’ll never give you up, my love, my queen
Cara Mia, you’re my everything

Chorus
Cara Mia, don’t let this be the end
My heart is yours, my love will never bend
You’re all I need, my love, my life, my friend
Cara Mia, my love will never end

Outro
Cara Mia, Cara Mia, I love you so
Cara Mia, Cara Mia, my love will grow
Forever and a day, I’ll love you so
Cara Mia, Cara Mia, my heart will always know
