Chris Rea — Tamatave lyrics

Je veux sentir le sable
Entre mes doigts de pieds
Tamatave ma petite rouquine
Elle la sait

Long grass dancing in the day
Blue sky palm trees gently sway
I come from a land down in sun
Sit on the beach and watch the waves run

I need the sand between my toes
Tamatave my red hair girl she knows

Tamatave je t'entends m'appeler
Tamatave je t'entends m'appeler
Tommasina I hear you calling me
Tamatave je t'entends m'appeler

I feel so strange on city streets
I got these big shoes on my feet
I come from a land down in sun
Sit on the beach and watch the waves run

Tamatave je ton ton mapelay
Tamatave je ton ton mapelay
Tommasina I hear you calling me
Tamatave je ton ton mapelay
