"Boracay Blue"

There's an island, only one
I often dream about---So
Green and golden, in the sun,
It leaves me little doubt---Though
What makes me feel that there's no place I would rather be
Is the blue of the sky stretching over me,
As it meets deep blue-green of clear coral sea.
It's the Boracay Blue, Dreaming of You
It's the Blue . . .
Sometimes lonely, in my room
Amid the city lights---When
Life is only, I assume,
A mere few days and nights---Then
I go where palm fronds are swaying in the setting sun,
Sifting sand through my toes---we are all but one,
And the mangoes are sweetest when day is done,
For the Boracay Blue, Deep clear and true,
It's the Blue . . .
What makes me feel that there's no place I would rather be
Is the blue high above watching over me,
Even gray clouds of blue float above the sea.
In the Boracay Blue, Dreaming of You,
It's the Blue . . .
