La Isla Bonita

Performed by Madonna, composition and lyrics by Madonna, Patrick Leonard, Bruce Gaitsch, produced by Madonna and Patrick Leonard.


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

*   [chorus:]
Tropical the isla breeze
All the 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 feel in love with San Pedro
Warm wind carried on the sea, he called to me
Te diso te amo
I prayed that the days would last
They went so fast

[repeat *]

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

[repeat * * *]

Te diso te amo
El dijo que te ama
