La isla bonita - Alizee (Video and lyrics)

Alizee - La isla bonita

[Spoken] Como puede ser verdad?
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.
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.
I prayed that the days would last.
They went so fast.

[Chorus]
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]
