Andy Williams

I've traveled far, the land and the sea
Beautiful places I happened to be
One little town I'll never forget
Is Lourdes, the village of Saint Bernadette

Ava, ava, ava Maria
Ava, ava, ava Maria

There like a dream this wonderful night
I gazed at the grotto aglow in the light
A feeling divine swept over me there
I fell to my knees as I whispered the prayer

Ava, ava, ava Maria
Ava, ava, ava Maria

Now I am home
I'm happy to be
Telling of places I've traveled to see
One little town
I'll never forget
Is Lourdes, the village of St. Bernadette

Ava, ava, ava Maria
Ava, ava, ava Maria

Ava, ava, ava Maria
Ava, ava, ava Maria
