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
Just like I'd never gone,
I knew the song
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
