Sail across horizons as the ocean sails towards the Eastern Sun
On into a world where sunken dreams are lost in time, and never won
In search of love down Wanchai way I did run
Into a sanpan world the night seems so young
Then a voice called out for love and I was gone
And I was Shanghai’d in love
Yes I was, Shanghai’d in love
Like a child yeah I was hooked on love
Shanghai’d in love
Through the night she gave me love, and love it was a game
She played so well
And though I never knew her name, the memories of her love
That I can tell
Down Wanchai way I lost my heart, don’t know why
Those Eastern eyes were made to torment a guy
She gave me love, but in the morning she was gone
And I was Shanghai’d in love
Yes I was, Shanghai’d in love
Like a child yeah I was hooked on love
Shanghai’d in love
And I was Shanghai’d in love
Yes I was, Shanghai’d in love
Like a child yeah I was hooked on love
Shanghai’d in love
