On Green Dolphin Street

Lyrics
It seems like a dream, yet I know it happened
Reflecting on a past experience that feels surreal but is acknowledged as real.
A man, a maid, a kiss, and then goodbye
Describing a moment of parting between a man and a woman with a kiss, indicating farewell.
Romance was the theme
Highlighting the central theme of the experience as romance.
And we were the players
Identifying the participants as actors in the romantic scenario.
I never think of this without a sigh
Expressing a wistful feeling associated with the memory of the experience.
Lover, one lovely day
Addressing a lover and recalling a beautiful day.
Love came, planning to stay
Describing love as arriving with the intention of permanence.

And through these moments apart memories live in my heart
Highlighting the enduring nature of memories during moments of separation.
When I recall the love I found on

Expressing a strong positive sentiment, suggesting a deep appreciation for the place.
