My ship set sail to Bluebird Island

And slowly drifted out to sea

Her silver sails to cross the ocean

Then out a---cross the waves,the bluebirds came one day

Out o'er the silver sea, your message brought to me

And anchor in the harbor of your heart.

The trade winds there on Bluebird Island

The treasure I found broken-hearted
