Jamaica Will Break Your Heart |
As I try to tell this story |
Of crystal sands and love and glory |
I am reminded by my new friends |
Of how it was for me |
The sun and herbs did rule the day |
At night we danced till the moon went away |
I always thought that all was right |
'Cause never ever did we fight |
Everybody smiles and sings |
Jamaica will break your heart, boy |
Jamaica will break your heart, boy, boy |
Those loving precious hours |
Sacred as the flowers |
That seemed to bloom as if by chance |
An honor to our passing dance |
I always told her I’m not worthy |
She would laugh and say don’t worry |
There ain’t nothing here to prove |
Ain’t no mountain to be moved |
Everybody smiles and sings |
Jamaica will break your heart, boy |
Jamaica will break your heart, boy, boy |
How this sorry state came to be |
You know it ain’t no mystery |
A blue eyed boy from 'cross the sea |
Erased our love and history |
He bought the land he bought the sand |
One day she took my hand |
You know I’ve got to live she said |
And moved into his flowery bed |
Everybody smiles and sings |
Jamaica will break your heart, boy |
Jamaica will break your heart, boy, boy |
I’m standing now by foreign streams |
Contemplating foreign dreams |
What was now is now the past |
Who was first is now outcast |
I don’t know when but soon, someday |
She’s gonna let me come back to stay |
And there beside the turquoise sea |
My love will be returned to me |
Everybody smiles and sings |
Jamaica will break your heart, boy |
Jamaica will break your heart, boy, boy |
