"Puerto Rico" lyrics - COLIN HAY

Lolita standing on the corner
Such beauty in one so young
Her eyes stare only for a moment
With the sun's glare she is gone

It's one world, one world to another
No warning of things to come
The splendor one side of the picture
Only one glimpse have to run

It's okay down in Puerto Rico
All the people say
Must come back here someday
It's okay down in Puerto Rico
Come what may
There's always church on Sunday

It's midday, all the streets are quiet
People sleep through the hot day sun
With darkness atmosphere's appealing
The night holds promise of things to come

It's okay here in Puerto Rico
All the people sway
We slip into a new day
It's okay here in Puerto Rico
If there's a way
We'll come back here someday

It's one bar then onto another
In the center of old San Juan
10,000 people standing on the sidewalks
I drink with each and every one

It's okay here in Puerto Rico
All the people say
You must come back here someday
It's okay here in Puerto Rico
Come what may
There's always church on Sunday

It's okay here in Puerto Rico
As the people sway
We drink into a new day
It's okay here in Puerto Rico
If there's a way
We'll come back here someday
