Drums of the Islands

Written：Polynesian Cultural Centre/Tepper/Bennett

Drums of the islands you're beating in my heart

You're with me no matter where I roam

If ever I wander if ever we're apart

I know that you will lead me home

If I should journey across the deep blue sea

I'll never forget these coral shores

Drums of the islands I hear you calling me

And I'll return forever yours

I love each valley each grain of sand each hill

The flowers the music of the isles

These are the things I love and always will

Though I may roam ten thousand miles
