Lyrics
On a coconut island
I'd like to be a castaway with you
On a coconut island
There wouldn't be so very much to do
I would linger a while
And just gaze into your lovely eyes of blue
Then I'd walk for a mile
And come running back to be with you
There the waves would make
A pair of willing slaves of you and me forever
And we'd laze for days and days and never
Gaze out where the ships go sailing by
On a coconut island
I'd like to be a castaway with you
On a coconut island
Where we could make our dreams come true
On a coconut island
I'd like to be a castaway with you
On a coconut island
There wouldn't be so very much to do
I would linger a while
And just gaze into your lovely eyes of blue
Then I'd walk for a mile
And come running back to be with you
There the waves would make
A pair of willing slaves of you and me forever
And we'd laze for days and days and never
Gaze out where the ships go sailing by
On a coconut island
I'd like to be a castaway with you
Just to bask in your smile
And to realize my dream come true
There the waves would make
A pair of willing slaves of you and me forever
And we'd laze for days and days and never
Gaze out where the ships go sailing by
On a coconut island
I'd like to be a castaway with you
Coconut island, baby
We could make our dream come true, baby
