To feel the caress of the sun by the edge of the sea, my love that bathes the shore Is what I long for And there, by a sugar cane grove While I tan my skin to feel through the earth on my feet The tropical breezes And sleeping in that clear hammock rocked by the morning, my love its clear blueness hanging from a palm tree Like a natural branch from heaven, to wake up And to find myself in the arms Of my home land To feel the soft breeze Of the evening as it ends, my love And at dawn the start Of the crowing from the barn To hear at daybreak Neighings and moos And atop a tamarind The crowing of a fine rooster Repeat Chorus It's just that my dreaming heart barely lives It wants to sail caribbean seas (repeat 3 times)
