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 |
As I try to tell this story | |
