lyrics
When I'm far far away from my island
Far from your eyes of blue
Dear I can't help but be a bit blue
When I'm far away from you
I travelled overseas for to make a bit of money
I worked so hard just to be with you
I will settle down my honey, oh my dear I will marry
I will spend my life along with you
I will come back soon and never more I'll roam
I will stay in my fenua, my home
For I love my country and I love you too
I can't live far from both of you
When I returned, jumping out of the plane
I was welcomed by a local music band
I kissed your hand and I kissed the sand
I will stay in my beautiful land
Far from your eyes of blue
Dear I can't help but be a bit blue
When I'm far away from you
I travelled overseas for to make a bit of money
I worked so hard just to be with you
I will settle down my honey, oh my dear I will marry
I will spend my life along with you
I will come back soon and never more I'll roam
I will stay in my fenua, my home
For I love my country and I love you too
I can't live far from both of you
When I returned, jumping out of the plane
I was welcomed by a local music band
I kissed your hand and I kissed the sand
I will stay in my beautiful land
