I know an island where the people are kind
And the rest of the world seems far away
Maybe its only in the back of my mind
But I know when I go thats where Ill stay

("oh how handsome!" says the cuban woman)
Que buena fortuna
(such good luck.)
Esa es mi vida
(this is my life)
Como el mambo de la luna

I know a land where they live for today
cause tomorrow is too far away
Maybe one day you will go there with me
And well dance underneath the ceiba tree

Love is the key to the dance, you can move in a trance when the music sets you free
Dont be afraid of the rhythm its made to give life to the way you want to be
Si, yo te quiero como quiero agua pura
(yes, I want you like I want pure water)
Si, yo te quiero como mueves la cintura
(yes, I want you, how you move your waist)
S tu me quieres, trae me la luna
(if you want me, bring me the moon)
No solo una parte pero la luna entira
(not just a piece but the entire moon)
