Trinidad

(album: Playing For Keeps - 1980)

There once was a story
From a thousand yesterdays
I read it in this ancient book
When the old man passed away
I drifted through the pages
And it's magic filled my eyes
I dreamed she once loved me
In the land called Trinidad

By the wind
Sailed the water
She calls my name
To come on back to hold me
Trinidad
Trinidad

The silence on the ocean
Stopped the silence in my heart
She still sings to me softly
Through the night
And in the dark

By the wind
Sailed the water
She calls my name
To come on back to hold me
Trinidad
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
Trinidad

She waits by her window
And she shines a light for me
To help me through the harbor
In the land called Trinidad

By the wind
Sailed the water
She calls my name
To come on back to hold me
Trinidad
Trinidad (Trinidad)
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
(Take me back)
Trinidad (Trinidad)
Come on home to hold me
(Come on home)
Trinidad
Hey hey hey
(Trinidad, Take me back)
(oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
(Trinidad, Take me back)
(oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
