In the Shade of a Volcano

My friend's all said I was crazy When I fell for eastern charms But they never felt your sweet breath when your sleeping in my arms My kin they tried to warn me Rushed love will never last But you can't hide from emotion just because we had no past So I ran straight to your home land Built a home and learned your tongue Left my Kin and western values To be happy in the sun But you dreamed of wealth and riches So we crossed the mighty sea To a world where nothing matters And your gauged by your money How I've longed for eastern sunshine Where joy and peace is all that flowed Making love in our bamboo home In the shade of a volcano
