Lyrics:

Six years I've been in the city
And every night I dream of the sea
They say home is where you find it
Will this place ever satisfy me?
For I come from the salt water people
We always lived by the sea
Now I'm down here living in the city
With my man and a family

My island home
My island home
My island home is waiting for me
My island home
My island home
My island home is waiting for me

In the evening the dry wind blows
From the hills and across the plains
I close my eyes and I'm standing
In a boat on the sea again
And I'm holding that long turtle spear
And I feel I'm close now to where it must be
My island home is waiting for me

Uh-huh, uh-huh
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

For I come from the salt water people
We always lived by the sea
Now I'm down here living in the city
With my man and a family

My island home
My island home
My island home is waiting for me
My island home
My island home
My island home is waiting for me

My island home
My island home
My island home is waiting for me
My island home
My island home
My island home is waiting for me

My island home
My island home
My island home
My island home
My island home
My island home
My island home
