      There's a story

      The gypsies know is true

      That when your love

      Wears golden earrings

      She belongs to you.

     

      An old love story

      That's known to very few
      But if you wear

      These golden earrings

      Love will come to you.

 

      By the burning fire

      They will glow

      With every coal

      You will hear desire whisper

      Low in your soul.

 

      So be my gypsy

      Make love your guiding light

      And let this pair

      Of golden earrings

      Cast their spell tonight.

   

      By the burning fire

      They will glow

      With every coal
      You will hear desire whisper

      Low in your soul.

 

      So be my gypsy

      Make love your guiding light

      And let this pair

      Of golden earrings

      Cast their spell tonight.

 

      Let this pair

      Of golden earrings

      Cast their spell tonight …

     

      Let this pair

      Of golden earrings

      Cast their spell tonight.
