Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Long days, tall rum
It's Clementine in summer sun
Blue smoke and warm breeze
By the sea, a cool tease
Walk through the city in red
Breaking hearts and turning heads
[Verse 2]
Three weeks have past
Calling back at long last
Walk into the sea again
Causing trouble, playing games
Through the waves I hear your name
Summer's young, a burning flame
[Chorus]
Be mine when I'm
On fire my Clementine
I'll bear in mind the things you said to me
Things you said on that day
[Chorus]
Be mine when I'm
On fire my Clementine
My heart's desire, oh, I know
I know you'll come again some day
Be mine when I'm
On fire my Clementine
My heart's desire, oh, I know
I know you'll come again some day
[Verse 3]
Summers lost and summers past
We were never meant to last
Black bough and black rain
Won't you say my name?
You go and rain comes
Fade to black a fading sun
[Chorus]
Be mine when I'm
On fire my Clementine
I'll bear in mind the things you said to me
Things you said on that day
[Chorus]
Be mine when I'm
On fire my Clementine
My heart's desire, oh, I hoped
I hoped you'll come again some day
Be mine when I'm
On fire my Clementine
My heart's desire, oh, I hoped
I hoped you'll come again some day
[Bridge]
Clementine, would you be mine?
Oh, I'm waiting on something
Clementine, would you be mine?
Oh, I hoped you'd keep coming
Clementine, would you be mine?
I'm waiting on something
Clementine, would you be mine?
Oh, I hoped you'd keep coming
Clementine, would you be mine?
Oh, I'm waiting on something
Clementine, would you be mine?
Oh, I hoped you'd keep coming
[Chorus]
Be mine when I'm
On fire my Clementine
I'll bear in mind the things you said to me
Things you said on that day
Be mine when I'm
On fire my Clementine
My heart's desire, oh, I hoped
I hoped you'll come again some day
[Chorus]
Be mine when I'm
On fire my Clementine
My heart's desire, oh, I hoped
I hoped you'll come again some day
Be mine when I'm
On fire my Clementine
My heart's desire, oh, I hoped
I hoped you'll come again some day
[Chorus]
Be mine when I'm
On fire my Clementine
My heart's desire
Oh, I'll bear in mind the things you said that day
Be mine when I'm
On fire my Clementine
I'll bear in mind the things you said to me
Things you said on that day
