Island Home

Christina Anu

Six years of 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 live 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 x 2





In the evening 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 to where I must be





My island home is waiting for me





For i come from the salt water people


We always live 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 x 4





My island home x 5
