Aretha Franklin
The Boy From Bombay
[Verse 1]
Just thought of a tune called "The Boy From Bombay"
I ain't got no idea what I am gon' say
A melody of something that I feel
And wondering if this tune is really real
Feel it, just sing to yourself about the boy from Bombay
Feels kinda close, but it's actually far away
It's all a kind of magic mystery
Just as much to you as it is to me

[Chorus]
But I know the boy from Bombay
She loved the boy from Bombay
She loved him with all of her heart
With all of her heart, with all of her heart
With all of her heart, with all of her heart, with her

[Verse 2]
Feels like some love riding on a wind of spring
And love in all forms is a beautiful, beautiful thing
If you find yourself trying to hum
Remember where the melody came from
It's the song or the tune or the boy from Bombay
Feels kinda close, but it's actually far away
Especially for you if you're kind of blue
I feel good about it, and I hope you do, too, ooh-ooh
[Outro]
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
The boy from Bombay
I'll give that one to the DJ
