Island of Ithaca,
I can’t desert you
I’m coming home
I’m coming home,

I will be watching the shore
as I leave you,
Say not goodbye,
Say not goodbye,

Love, days of sun and wine
Where we shared our dreams,
and our loving filled the night,
Don’t cry for it won’t be long
Till I come back again Holding you here in my arms,

Island of Ithaca,
I’m still a yearning,
Say not goodbye
Say not goodbye,

Love, days of sun and wine
Where we shared our dreams,
and our loving filled the night,
Don’t cry for it won’t be long
Till I come back again Holding you here in my arms,

Island of Ithaca,
I’m still a yearning,
Say not goodbye
Say not goodbye

Island of Ithaca,
I’m still a yearning,
Say not goodbye
Say not goodbye,

Say not goodbye
Say not goodbye,
Say not goodbye,

 

 

“It’s good to hear the songs of times gone by of my good friends Dario & Delia…reminds me of when we were all much younger !” Vance Harvey

“A voice, angelic. Lyricism with a depth of soul that is no longer known today. A happiness that these songs have been preserved for us. Thanks to the one who gave us this gift. Holmer!”  Goran Holming
