Tahitian Moon Lyrics

VERSE 1:
Had to get away I couldn't stand another dreary day
Of people with the same expression on each face
Guess I needed to find some secret place

I bought a round trip cheap
I broke my lease and gave away my heap
I flew down to Tahiti where soft breezes blow
And I rented a grass roof bungalow

BRIDGE:
There I met an island girl so fair
She was the child of a dream
We both wore flowers in the hair
Bathing each day in the stream
Perfume around and everywhere
Out of the sea she came to me
Suddenly we were vis-a vis
Lovers beneath the mango tree Michael Franks - Tahitian Moon - http://motolyrics.com/michael-franks/tahitian-moon-lyrics.html
Under the Tahitian moon

CHORUS:
Now I'm saving my way back to you Tahiti,
Take me in your arms again (2x)

VERSE 2:
I knew I couldn't stay
I couldn't stand another perfect day
Of leaving in this paradise without an end
Guess I needed to feel confused again
I promised to return
The tears upon her cheeks began to burn
She handed me a note I promised not to lose
It said love is the pain you can't refuse
