Jamaica Will Break Your Heart

歌詞

As i try to tell this story Of crystal sands and love and glory I am reminded by new friends Of how it was for me The sun and herbs did rule the day At night we danced till the moon went away I always thought that all was right 'cause never ever did we fight Everybody smiles and sings Jamaica will break your heart, boy Jamaica will break your heart, boy, boy Those loving precious hours Sacred as the flowers That seemed to bloom as if by chance An honor to our passing dance I always told her i'm not worthy She would laugh and say don't worry There ain't nothing here to prove Ain't no mountain to be moved Everybody smiles and sings Jamaica will break your heart, boy Jamaica will break your heart, boy, boy How this sorry state came to be You know it ain't no mystery A blue eyed boy from 'cross the sea Erased our love and history He bought the land he bought the sand One day she took my hand You know i've got to live she said And moved into his flowery bed. Everybody smiles and sings Jamaica will break your heart, boy Jamaica will break your heart, boy, boy I'm standing now by foreign streams Contemplating foreign dreams What was now is now the past Who was first is not outcast I don't know when but soon, someday She's gonna let me come back to stay And there beside the turquoise sea My love will be returned to me Everybody smiles and sings Jamaica will break your heart, boy Jamaica will break your heart, boy, boy
