島人ぬ宝

歌詞

How much do I really know? How much has it ever shown? Of all the stars that shine above or clouds that come and go You can ask me all their names, but I'm really not sure to claim I was born here on this island, yet still I cannot say But I know deep inside, something money could never buy All the times that I've cried and the tears that have dried It all happened right here under this sky So many things are kept in darkness In all the textbooks we blindly follow No matter what you've heard in the papers Believe me, there's more to be seen That is the treasure of my home, our island dream How much do I understand? How much do I really see? Of all the dying coral and the life under the seas How are we to repossess, and give breath to what is left? You could ask me for solutions, still I can't explain But I know deep inside, something money could never buy I can tell in the tides to the waves that I ride The ocean is changing before my eyes So many things that are never spoken On the radio and television No matter how clear the pictures appear Believe me, there's more to be seen That is the treasure of my home, our island dream How much do I perceive? How much there is to be? To the words that are sung to these island harmonies Tuva Rama lullabies, Densa melodies I can't even define for you what they really mean But I know deep inside, something money could never buy Of the joy that they bring when we hear them all sing While we're dancing through the night until sunrise Inside of me I will always cherish The memories of the love I've shared No matter how far we are apart now, my heart is there to stay cause That is the treasure of my home, our island dream That is the treasure of my home, our island dream That is the treasure of my home, our island dream
