Sun of Jamaica Lyrics
Goombay Dance Band
(Long time ago, when I was a young boy
I saw that movie "Mutiny on the Bounty"
Starring my idol, Marlon Brando
And I felt a yearning for that great adventure)
(So many nights I woke up out of a dream
A dream of blue seas, white sands,
Paradise birds, b***erflies and beautiful warm-hearted girls)
Sun of Jamaica, the Dreams of Malaika
My love is my sweet memory
Sun of Jamaica, Blue Lady Malaika
Someday, I'll return, wait and see
Walk in the sand and I'm happy with you
We shall be loving and true
Oh, I sure love Malaika
With all of my heart
I will allways be faithful and true, yeah, true
(But now as I grew older
This burning desire became so strong
That I bought me a ticket to fly home
And then I found you)
(And we found an eternal love right from the beginning
The stars falling down from the lagoon of gold
The palms swaying under the moon
We were swimming out into the crystal sea)
(In that fateful night, I thought to myself
I'll do everything I can, save up every dime
And one day, I'll return, come back home to you
And then I'll stay forever, forever)
Sun of Jamaica, the Dreams of Malaika
My love is my sweet memory
Sun of Jamaica, Blue Lady Malaika
Someday, I'll return, wait and see
Walk in the sand and I'm happy with you
We shall be loving and true
Oh, I sure love Malaika
With all of my heart
I will allways be faithful and true, yeah, true
Sun of Jamaica, the Dreams of Malaika
My love is my sweet memory
Sun of Jamaica, Blue Lady Malaika
Some day, I'll return, wait and see
Sun of Jamaica, the Dreams of Malaika...
