Native Island

Oh I, wish I had a native island to return to,
Oh I, I'd pack my bags and I'd fly back there tonight,
Oh I, I'd leave behind all the sillyness of this modern world,
Oh I'd trade cars and phones for the rocky cliffs,
And the white caps of the sea.
Oh I, sometimes I know I am not born here,
I'm from somewhere else,
Oh I, my native island where clear blue kneel down and kiss the earth
Oh I, know I'll go back when the world's gone wrong,
When I can't go on
Oh I, Land of my people, they know the truth and they're waiting there for me,
One day I'll go, one day I'll go
To native shores, to native shores, one day I'll go
One day I'll go, one day I'll go
To native shores, to native shores, today I'll go
Oh I, wish I had a native island to return to,
Oh I, I'd pack my bags and I'd fly back there tonight,
Oh I got to get on board,
On a journey back to where I was born,
Oh I got to get on board,
On a journey back to where I was born
One day I'll go, one day I'll go,
To native shores, to native shores, one day I'll go,
One day I'll go, one day I'll go,
To native shores, to native shores, one day I'll go,
One day I'll go, one day I'll go,
To native shores, to native shores,
One day I'll go, one day I'll go,
To native shores today I'll go,
I'll go....
