Long time ago, when I was a young boy I saw that movie "Mutiny on the Bounty" Starring my idol, Marlon Brando And I felt a yearning for that great adventure So many nights I woke up out of a dream A dream of blue seas, white sands, Paradise birds, butterflies and beautiful warm-hearted girls
Sun of Jamaica, the dreams of Malaika Our love is my sweet memory Sun of Jamaica, Blue Lady Malaika Some day I'll return, wait and see Walk in the sand and I'm happy with you We shall be loving and true Oh I sure love Malaika With all of my heart I will always be faithful and true, yeah true
But now as I grew older This buring desire became so strong That I bought me a ticket to fly over there And then I found you And we found an eternal love right from the beginning Stars falling down from the sleepy lagoon Palms swaying under the moon We were swimming out into the calm, crystal sea In that fateful night I thought to myself I'll do everything I can, save every dime And one day I'll return, come back home to you And then I'll stay forever, forever
Sun of Jamaica, the dreams of Malaika Our love is my sweet memory Sun of Jamaica, Blue Lady Malaika Some day I'll return, wait and see Walk in the sand and I'm happy with you We shall be loving and true Oh I sure love Malaika With all of my heart I will always be faithful and true, yeah true
