Last night I dreamt of San Pedro

Just like I'd never gone I knew the song

A young girl with eyes like the desert

It all seems like yesterday not far away

Tropical the island breeze

All of nature wild and free

This is where I long to be

La isla bonita

I fell in love with San Pedro

Warm wind carried on the sea he called to me

Te dijo te amo

I prayed that the days would last they went so fast

Tropical the island breeze

All of nature wild and free

This is where I long to be

La isla bonita

And when the samba played

The sun would set so high

Ring through my ears and sting my eyes

You Spanish lullaby

I want to be where the sun warms the sky

When it's time for siesta you can watch them go by

Beautiful faces no cares in this world

Where a girl loves a boy

And a boy loves a girl

Tropical the island breeze

All of nature wild and free

This is where I long to be

La isla bonita

And when the samba played

The sun would set so high

Ring through my ears and sting my eyes

You Spanish lullaby
