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
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
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 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
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
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
