Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and she's been on my mind since
But let me tell you how the story go...
I took flight, I was overseas, Yeah
There must be something coming over me, yeah
I try to leave, but I always come right back
I never fell head over heels for a girl like that, no
She said, "If you want it, hop up on that plane boy.
You goin' have to work for it, to change my name boy"
and I don't mind, just as long I get to your Chamorrita heart girl. Oh
Hey, I'm nothing special, but she love me anyway
She take me for me money but I spend it all the way
She got me caught up now, when she comes around
She's my Island Love, when this plane touch down
Hey, so many miles, but she call me every day
She sends me plenty pictures with that look upon her face
Yeah, she makes me proud, so I say it loud
She's my Island Love, when this plane touch down, yay
Sweet like a coconut, now how can she be so right?
She say "come get it" and I'm looking up that next fight
You can call me crazy, only for my baby
She's the only one, that's been on my mind lately
