Many nights I sit here
With memories by the score
Thinking of the days I spent
With a girl I still adore
I'm...
Goin' back to see her
Before my days are done
Goin' back to see her
In the land of the sea and sun
Once I had a notion
'bout this bajan girl
So I put my thoughts in motion
An' found my heart in a whirl
Goin' back to see her
Before my days are done
Goin' back to see her
In the land of the sea and sun
Ever since I left her
Nothing's been the same
Think I'll pull up anchor
Go back an' give her my name
Goin' back to see her
Before my days are done
Goin' back to see her
In the land of the sea and sun
(written and composed by Irving Burgie, 1960)
