Muyuni Beach, Zanzibar
Whenever my thoughts part
They seem to end up in Zanzibar
Muyuni Beach they travel far
to swim the deep oceans of Zanzibar.
It's been handed down through generations
a tale of the Queen of the ocean
With one breath she dives for hours
bringing treasure to her lover on land.
I saw her once dancing on devil's rock
even cross my mind to take her lovers place
If only I hadn't looked into her eyes
I would have never known how much he meant to her.
Is been many years since I last saw her
Though whenever my thoughts depart
In Zanzibar I find my self on Devil's Rock
where in my travel I look for her
so I can see her dance again.
