Last night I dreamt of San Pedro
Just like Iīve never gone, I knew the song
Young girl with eyes like the desert
It all seems like yesterday, so far away
Chorus:
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
Chorus
Intermediate:
I want to be where the sun warms the sky
When itīs 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 dream of San Pedro
It all seems like yesterday, not far away
Chorus (repeat)
La la la la la la la
Te dijo te amo
La la la la la la la
El dijo que te ama
