Chet Atkins - Avalon

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

just be-fore i sailed away
she said the word i longed to hear her say,
i tenderly caressed her
close to my heart i pressed her
upon that golden yesterday
i found my love in avalon
beside the bay
i left my love in avalon and sailed away
i dream of her and avalon
from dusk 'til dawn
and so i think i'll travel on
to avalon
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

just be-fore i sailed away
she said the word i longed to hear her say,
i tenderly caressed her
close to my heart i pressed her
upon that golden yesterday
i found my love in avalon
beside the bay
i left my love in avalon and sailed away
i dream of her and avalon
from dusk 'til dawn
and so i think i'll travel on
to avalon
