(clarke / sylvester / hicks)
Sailing on a summer breeze, going back to my island
Nearly done my time, my life will be mine once again
The distant past so far behind and I hope there hasnt been many changes
cos I havent seen my island for such a long time
Oh oh oh oh, I want to breathe the air thats free
Oh oh oh oh, I want to feel the warm sand beneath my feet
And the sun on my face, yeah
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Couldnt say goodbye through no fault of mine to my loved ones
But sent a message through from my first port of call
I was pressed into time by the men from the line
They didnt tell me where I was going
And I havent seen my island in such a long time
Oh oh oh oh, Ive sailed upon the seven seas
Oh oh oh oh, you wouldnt believe the things Ive seen
When I get home Ill tell you
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
