《Island in the Sun(Live)》歌词

[00:00:00] Island in the Sun (Live) (Live) - The Brothers Four

[00:00:43] This is my island in the sun

[00:00:47] Where my people have toiled

[00:00:51] Since time begun

[00:00:54] I may sail on many a sea

[00:01:00] Her shores will always be home to me

[00:01:10] Oh island in the sun

[00:01:15] Willed to me by my father's hand

[00:01:20] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:01:24] Of your forest waters

[00:01:27] Your shining sand

[00:01:35] When morning breaks

[00:01:37] The heaven on high

[00:01:40] I lift my heavy load to the sky

[00:01:45] Sun comes down with a burning glow

[00:01:50] Mingles my sweat with the earth below

[00:01:55] Oh island in the sun

[00:01:59] Willed to me by my father's hand

[00:02:04] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:02:09] Of your forest waters

[00:02:12] Your shining sand

[00:02:17] I see woman on bended knee

[00:02:23] Cutting cane for her family

[00:02:27] I see man at the water side

[00:02:32] Casting nets at the surging tide

[00:02:38] Oh island in the sun

[00:02:42] Willed to me by my father's hand

[00:02:47] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:02:52] Of your forest waters

[00:02:55] Your shining sand

[00:03:02] I hope the day will never come

[00:03:06] That I can't awake to the sound of drum

[00:03:13] Never let me miss carnival

[00:03:16] With calypso songs philosophical

[00:03:23] Oh island in the sun

[00:03:27] Willed to me by my father's hand

[00:03:32] All my days I will sing in praise

[00:03:36] Of your forest waters

[00:03:39] Your shining sand
