Last night I dreamt of San Pedro 
Just like I'd never gone, I knew the song 
young girl with eyes like the desert 
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 
Your 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 that 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 
Your 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 
Your Spanish lullaby
