Croce Di Oro Cross Of Gold lyrics

Croce Di Oro (Cross Of Gold)
Patti Page
Written by James `Kim` Gannon

Peaked at # 16 in 1955
Features an arrangement similar to Les Paul & Mary Ford`s smash 1953 hit `Vaya Con Dios.`

You`ll be gone when the dawn comes tomorrow
You`ll be far, far away out at sea
So I give you this croce di oro
It will bring you home safely to me

Ev`ry hour we`re apart will be sorrow
In the chapel a candle will burn
Take my love and this croce di oro
I will pray for you till you return

My darling, my darling, my darling
Do you see that star in the blue?
Each night I will give it a message
And the star will give it to you

Till we meet on that far-off tomorrow
May the Good Lord be with you and then
With the help of this croce di oro
You`ll be back in my arms once again

With the help of this croce di oro
You`ll be back in my arms once again (croce di oro)
