You appear on the horizon, far away
My desire to be there with you
Stirs the wind and fills the sails
In the bay I drop the anchor down, swim ashore
On the beach the coconut palms
Jasmine, frangipane and you
Your silent eyes convince me
I'm marooned
We're safe inside this azure blue lagoon
I want to know you, bird of paradise
I want to show you all the love that I feel
I need to touch you, bird of paradise
I need your touch to make this fantasy real
On the sea a storm is raging, far away
And the ships, like so many toys
Fear the wind and fight the waves
In your arms, a forgotten dream
Nothing more
Here the sky is perfectly clear
Evening star, the moonlight and you
Your silent eyes convince me
I'm marooned
We're safe inside this azure blue lagoon
I want to know you (I want to know you), bird of paradise
I want to show you (I wanto to show you), all the love that I feel
I need to touch you (I need to touch you), bird of paradise
I need your touch to (I need your touch to), make this fantasy real
I want to know you, bird of paradise
I want to show you all the love that I feel
Just you and me, a mango tree
The bare necessities of love
My bird of paradise, I realize
That you were sent here from above
You're my bird of paradise
My bird of paradise
Yeah, yeah
