Long time ago, when I was a young
|
Boy,
|
I saw that movie, "Mutiny on theBounty"
|
Starring my idol, Marlon Brando.
|
And I felt a yearning for that
|
Great adventure.
|
So many nights I woke up out of aDream
|
A dream of blue seas, white sands,
|
Paradies birds, butterflies, and
|
Beautiful warm-hearted girls.
|
|
Sun of Jamaika, the dreams of
|
Malaika,
|
Your love is my sweet memory.
|
|
Sun of Jamaika, 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
|
The burning desire became so strong
|
That I bought a tiket 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 everthing I can, save
|
Every dime,
|
And one day I'll return,
|
And then I'll stay forever, forever.
|
|
Sun of Jamaika, the dreams of
|
Malaika,
|
Your love is my sweet memory.
|
Sun of Jamaika, 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.
