Tobago Style
Tobago
I heard you calling out my name
I was dancing in the water
And you were melting out my pain
Tobago
You held me close next to your heart
I'm sure I heard you beating
And you were beating wild

Tobago
When I came to you, I was sad
I was searching for some answers
I was remembering the past
Tobago
You warmed me up and threw me in
I came upon my silence
A pool of blue, my breathing skin

I'd bounce a word off a satellite
I'd skip a poem off the sea
(Ooh, your face in the moonlight)
Send a message by submarine
Reserved for you and me
I'd take a walk down under the palm
Carrying my love in my heart
I'd find a way to pull you in
No time, no distance could keep us apart
Come, come, come, come, come...
Just now
We do a love up, Tobago Style

We send a message, Tobago Style
We feel a love up, Tobago Style
We do a jump up, Toronto Style
I hold you near me, Tobago Style

As the day grows
Me and the sun, we sit and chat
I'm laughing at my mango
I do a soca style dance
Tobago
You warmed my thighs and threw me in
I came upon my silence
A pool of blue, my breathing skin

I'd bounce a word off a satellite
I'd skip a poem off the sea
I'd send a message by submarine
Reserve the calls of love for you and me
I'd take a walk under the palm
Carrying my love with my heart
I'd let my memories pull you in
No time, no distance could keep us apart
I'd bounce a word off a satellite
Skip a poem off the sea
Send a message by submarine
Reserve the calls of love for you and me now

You and me, now, you and me
You and me, now, you and me

I do a jump up, Tobago Style
Send a message of love
Come, come, come, come, come, come
Lying on the beach
