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
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
