CHORUS:
                          
Leee..ah, Le..ah   Leee..ah, Le..ah. 
        
Here I go, 
                                
From the hut, to the boat, to the sea, 
        
for Le..ah. 

#1.
                            
I've got to go, diving in the bay. 
                                              
Got to get a lot of oysters, find some pearls today. 
                                       
To make a pretty necklace for Leah.  Le..ee...ah. 

CHORUS:

#2.
                                          
I've got to go deep and find the ones, just right. 
                                   
I'll bet my Leah will be surprised tonight. 
                                                     
I'll place the pearls around the only girl for me.  Le..ee..ah. 

CHORUS:

#3.
                                    
But something's wrong, I cannot move around. 
                               
My leg is caught, it's pulling me down. 
                                              
But I'll keep my hands shut tight, for if they find me, 
                            
They'll find the pearls for Le..ah. 

#4.
                              
And now it's over, I'm awake at last. 
                                   
All heartaches and memories from the past. 
                                               
It was just another dream about my lost love. Le..ee..ah. 
                   
Le...ah, Leah.  Le..ah, Leah. 
                                        
Here I go, back to sleep and my dreams. 
                               
And I'll be with Le..ah, Le..ah, Le..aaaaah. (Fade)
