Goombay Dance Band Sing Little Children
(Long time ago, when I was a young boy I saw that movie "Mutiny on the Bounty" Starring my idol, Marlon Brando And I felt a yearning for that great adventure)
(So many nights I woke up out of a dream A dream of blue seas, white sands, Paradise birds, butterflies and beautiful warm-hearted girls)
Sun of Jamaica, the Dreams of Malaika My love is my sweet memory Sun of Jamaica, 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 allways be faithful and true, yeah, true
(But now as I grew older This burning desire became so strong That I bought me a ticket 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 everything I can, save up every dime And one day, I'll return, come back home to you And then I'll stay forever, forever)
Sun of Jamaica, the Dreams of Malaika My love is my sweet memory Sun of Jamaica, 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 allways be faithful and true, yeah, true
Sun of Jamaica, the Dreams of Malaika My love is my sweet memory Sun of Jamaica, Blue Lady Malaika Some day, I'll return, wait and see
Sun of Jamaica, the Dreams of Malaika...
