On Tropical Island

Doused and dizzy, I drowsed On a tropical island, I roused With Calypso music on my head The troubles in my heart were all dead The beauty was finer than gold Like a tale of heaven that's not been told Waters as blue as the skies Shone to mend the sorrow in my eyes The sand on the shore became my bed I laid down till the hue of sun turned red And when darkness engulfed the light of day The moon in the sky turned to gray And with the kiss of waves by the shore I reached out with my hands to ask for more More time on the island paradise Until the sun in the sky is on the rise 3rd place
