Oh, island in the sun
Oh, island in the sun
Willed to me by my father's hand
Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days, I will sing in praise
All my days, I will sing in praise
Of your forest water, your shining sand
Of your forest water, your shining sand
Si tú supieras que yo sin ti
If you only knew that without you
Ya no he vuelto a ser como ayer
I am no longer the way I was yesterday
¿Que necesito para vivir
What do I need to live
Que necesites de mi querer?
That you need from my love?
Oh, island in the sun
Oh, island in the sun
Willed to me by my father's hand
Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days, I will sing in praise
All my days, I will sing in praise
Of your forest water, your shining sand
Of your forest water, your shining sand
Si tú supieras como yo sé
If you only knew how I know
Que no puedo vivir sin ti
That I can't live without you
Que no he vuelto a saber querer
That I haven't come to know love again
Desde aquel día en que te perdí
Since that day I lost you
Oh, island in the sun
Oh, island in the sun
Willed to me by my father's hand
Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days, I will sing in praise
All my days, I will sing in praise
Of your forest water, your shining sand
Of your forest water, your shining sand
Quiero vivir cerca del mar
I want to live near the sea
Quiero estar solo junto a ti
I want to be alone with you
Donde el amor ya no tenga edad
Where love knows no age
Donde el amor ya no tenga fin
Where love has no end
Oh, island in the sun
Oh, island in the sun
Willed to me by my father's hand
Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days, I will sing in praise
All my days, I will sing in praise
Of your forest water, your shining sand
Of your forest water, your shining sand
Oh, island in the sun
Oh, island in the sun
Willed to me by my father's hand
Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days, I will sing in praise
All my days, I will sing in praise
Of your forest water, your shining sand
Of your forest water, your shining sand
Oh, island in the sun
Oh, island in the sun
Willed to me by my father's hand
Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days, I will sing in praise
All my days, I will sing in praise
Of your forest water, your shining sand
Of your forest water, your shining sand
Oh, island in the sun
Oh, island in the sun
Willed to me by my father's hand
Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days, I will sing in praise
All my days, I will sing in praise
Of your forest water, your shining sand
Of your forest water, your shining sand
