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
And when the samba played
The sun would set so high
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
You 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 taht 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
You 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
You Spanish lullaby
