Ia ora - te natura

VERSE 1:
I know I don't get there often enough
but God knows I sure-ly try
t's a magic kind of - medicine
that no doctor - could prescribe
VERSE 2:
I used to rule my world from a pay phone
ships out on - the sea
But now times are rough - and I got - too much stuff
can't explain - the likes of me
PRE-CHORUS A:
But there's this one - particular harbour
so far - but yet so near
Where I see the days as they fade away
and finally - disappear
BRIDGE:
But now I think about the good times
down in the caribbean sunshine
In my younger days I was so bad
laughin about all the fun we had
I seen enough to feel the world spin
mixin different oceans meetin cousins
Listen to the drummers and the night sounds
listen to the singers make the world go round
[INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE]
[REPEAT IA-ORAs]
[PAUSE]
VERSE 3:
Lakes below - the mountain
flow into - the sea
Like oils applied - to canvas
they permeate through me
PRE-CHORUS B:
And there's that one - particular harbour
sheltered from the wind
Where the children play - on the shore each day
and all are safe within
PRE-CHORUS C:
Most mysterious calling harbour
so far - but yet so near
I can see the day - when my hair's full gray
and I finally - disappear
[IA ORAs in percussion]
