Prima Dona – La Isla Bonita lyrics

Como puede ser verdad? (eng- "how could it be true?)

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

*Chorus*
Tropical the island breeze
All of nature wild and free
This is where I long to be
La isla bonita (eng- "the beautiful island")
And when the samba played
The sun would set so high
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
Your Spanish lullaby

I fell in love with San Pedro
Warm wind carried on the sea, he called to me
Te dijo te amo (eng- "he told you:- I love you")
I prayed that the days would last
They went so fast

*Chorus*
Tropical the island breeze
All of nature wild and free
This is where I long to be
La isla bonita (eng- "the beautiful island")
And when the samba played
The sun would set so high
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
Your 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

Last night I dreamt of San Pedro
It all seems like yesterday, not far away

*Chorus* (x2)
Tropical the island breeze
All of nature wild and free
This is where I long to be
La isla bonita (eng- "the beautiful island")
And when the samba played
The sun would set so high
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
Your Spanish lullaby

La la la la la la la
Te dijo te amo (eng- "he told you:- I love you")
La la la la la la la
El dijo que te ama (eng- "he said he loves you")
