La isla bonita - Madonna

 

(Spoken:)

Como puede ser verdad?                                  How could it be true? 

 

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

 

Chorus:

 

Tropical the island breeze

All of nature wild and free

This is where I long to be

La isla bonita                                                       The beautiful island

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                                      He told you, "I love you"

I prayed that the days would last

They went so fast

 

(chorus)

 

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

 

(chorus twice)

 

La la la la la la la

Te dijo te amo                                      He told you, "I love you"

La la la la la la la

El dijo que te ama                                               He said he loves you
