Adieu To My Island Lyrics - Singles - Kingston Trio

I must bid adieu to my island 

Leave the nights by the sea 

My heart is heavy inside me 

Bow down just like the palm tree 

The nights may be warm in Hawaii 

And the sun may shine on Rome 

But the steel bands are playing in Trinidad 

And my heart tells me that's home 

I must bid adieu to my island 

Leave the nights by the sea 

My heart is heavy inside me 

Bow down just like the palm tree 

I've traveled around on the sailing ships 

From Barbados to Bombay 

But the laughter in the market in Trinidad 

Tells me that's where I should stay 

The sun's comin' out of the ocean now 

In an hour I'll be gone 

Watch from the mountain when the ships sail in 

For the one that I'll be on 

I must bid adieu to my island 

Leave the nights by the sea 

My heart is heavy inside me 

Bow down just like the palm tree
