Sun of Jamaica

Sun of Jamaica - 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 butterflies

And beautiful warm-hearted girls

Sun of Jamaica the dreams of Malaika

Our 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 always 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 fell in an eternal love

Right from the beginning

The stars falling down from the smoothing lagoon

The palms swaying under the moon

We were swimming out into the calm and 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

Our 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 always be faithful and true yeah true

Sun of Jamaica the dreams of Malaika

Our love is my sweet memory

Sun of Jamaica Blue Lady Malaika

Someday I'll return wait and see
