Island Love

Back

c. 1975-2006 Kirk Clendinning

Island love, dancing and singing.

She just watches, toes in the sand.

Like the sun bends over the ocean,

He leans down and kisses her hand.

Throwing shells that skip on the water.

Chasing fishes caught by the tide.

In the waves, drifting together,

Island love, nothing to hide.

CHORUS

Yamo, yamo, yeah, I'm 'mo be alright.

Yamo, yamo, yeah, I'm 'mo be all night.

Yamo, yamo, yeah, I'm 'mo go yo' way.

Yamo, yamo, no problems today.

Cool winds whistle tunes in the mountains.

Her eyes sparkle in the firelight.

Moonbeams ride the waves to the shoreline.

Steel drums echo into the night.

Warm embraces under a tall tree.

Promises tossed into the sky.

Kisses shared, caressed by the starlight.

Island love, never will die.

CHORUS

No problems yeah!

Throwing shells that skip on the water.

Chasing fishes caught by the tide.

In the waves, drifting together.

Island love, nothing to hide.

CHORUS (REPEAT)

Yamo, yamo, yeah, I'm 'mo be alright.
