Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Six years I've been in the city
And every night I dream of the sea
They say home is where you find it
Will this place ever satisfy me?
For I come from the salt water people
We always live by the sea
Now I'm down here living in the city
With my man and a family
[Chorus]
My island home
My island home
My island home is waiting for me
My island home
My island home
My island home is waiting for me
[Verse 2]
In the evening the dry wind blows
From the hills and across the plain
I close my eyes and I'm standing
In a boat on the sea again
And I'm holding that long turtle spear
And I feel I'm close now
To where it must be
My island home is waiting for me
[Bridge]
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-ha-A-a
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh
[Verse 3]
For I come from the salt water people
We always live by the sea
Now I'm down here living in the city
With my man and a family
[Chorus]
My island home
My island home
My island home is waiting for me
My island home
My island home
My island home is waiting for me
[Chorus]
My island home
My island home
My island home is waiting for me
My island home
My island home
My island home is waiting for me
[Outro]
My island home
My island home
My island home
My island home
My island home...
