My ship set sail to Bluebird Island

And slowly drifted out to sea

Her silver sails to cross the ocean

My lover's lonely heart set free



Then out across the waves

The bluebirds came one day

Out o'er the silver sea

Your message brought to me

To sail my ship of love along the moonlit bay

And anchor in the harbor of your heart



The trade winds there on Bluebird Island

Soon dried her lonely tears away

The treasure I found broken hearted

Was locked within my heart to stay
