Pacifica (Live) 歌詞
Pacifica (Live) - Graeme Connors
Captain Bligh sailed by in 1789
Between Viti and Vanua Levu
Too blinded by his rage to see the beauty of those golden shores
Blinded by his rage to find a hangman's noose in Dutch Timor
The Resolution sailed in 1791
From Tahiti on a westward wind
In search of The Bounty mutineers
The schooner master and his crew
Dropped anchor for a while in the enchanted isle of Matuku
And there they stayed
And there they played
Whoa-oh-ohh Pacifica
The gentle heart yearns for thee
Whoa-oh-ohh Pacifica
Home is the sailor
Home from the sea
The Isabella sailed in 1871
From Malayta and Guadalcanal
44 Kanakas came recruited as the plantation's hands
Their sweat and blood and tears would build the canefields of North Queensland
And to this day
Their children say
Whoa-oh-ohh Pacifica
The gentle heart yearns for thee
Whoa-oh-ohh Pacifica
Home is the sailor
Home from the sea
Tusitala set his hopeless sail too late
Under a wide and starry sky
Robert Louis Stevenson relieved of all his wordly ills
Sailed into that good long night from high up in the Samoan Hills
And from his grave
He tells his tales
Whoa-oh-way-yay
Whoa-oh-ohh Pacifica
The gentle heart yearns for thee
Whoa-oh-ohh Pacifica
Home is the sailor
Home from the sea
Whoa-oh-ohh Pacifica
The gentle heart yearns for thee
Whoa-oh-ohh Pacifica
Home is the sailor
Home from the sea
