Текст песни: South Sea Song + перевод

Not too long ago I decided I would go

Drifting with the tide down where the trade winds blow

I went sailing in on a southwest wind from some place I don’t recall

Glad to be on solid ground, just as the sun was going down

I stepped out to take a look around

I had a Mai Tai in my hand and I was looking at the moon

Listening to a band play some south sea island tunes

There was a warm breeze blowing and the rum was flowing, you could almost touch

the stars

All at once it came to me nowhere in my memory

That I had ever felt so fine and free

Then she came from out of nowhere

A brown-skinned girl with flowers in her hair

She looked at me awhile

And then she smiled a special smile

And it went right through me when she swayed up to me

There was something she wanted to say

She said: ‘I can make your dreams come true'

‘Come and let me welcome you to paradise'

She took me by the hand, I didn’t even know her name

She led me through the sand down this little moonlit lane

And on out back was a small grass shack and as we got to the door

With the palm trees thrashing and the trade winds crashing, the waves down on

the shore

She turned around and she pulled me down and she said it just once more

She said: ‘I can make your dreams come true'

‘Come and let me welcome you to paradise, paradise'
