You with the sad eyes Don't be discouraged Oh I realize It's hard to take courage In a worldfull of people You can lose sight of it all And the darkness inside you Can make you feel so small
But I see your true colors Shining through I see your true colors And that's why I love you So don't be afraid to let them show Your true colors True colors are beautiful, Like a rainbow
Last night I dreamt of San Pedro Just like I'd never gone, I knew the song A 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 (x2)
La la la la la la la Te dijo te amo La la la la la la la El dijo que te ama
I have a tale to tell Sometimes it gets so hard To hide it well I was not ready for the fall Too blind to see the writing on the wall
A man can tell a thousand lies I've learned my lesson well Hope I live to tell The secret I have learned 'Til then It will burn inside of me
I know where beauty lives I've seen it once I know the warmth she gives The light that you could never see It shines inside You can't take that from me
A man can tell a thousand lies I've learned my lesson well Hope I live to tell The secret I have learned 'Til then It will burn inside of me
The truth is never far behind You kept it hidden well If I live to tell The secret I knew then Will I ever have the chance again
If I ran away I'd never have the strength To go very far How would they hear The beating of my heart Will it grow cold (will it grow cold?) The secret that I hide Will I grow old How will they hear When will they learn How will they know
A man can tell a thousand lies I've learned my lesson well Hope I live to tell The secret I have learned 'Til then It will burn inside of me
The truth is never far behind You kept it hidden well If I live to tell The secret I knew then Will I ever have the chance again
A man can tell a thousand lies I've learned my lesson well Hope I live to tell The secret I have learned 'Til then It will burn inside of me
