"Bluebird Island" Lyrics

(Hank Snow)
Hank Snow & Anita Carter

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 blusbirds came one day)
Out o'er the silver sea
Your message brought to me.

(To sail my ship of love)
(Across the moonlight bay)
And anchor in the harbor
Of your heart.

The trade winds there on Bluebird Island
Soon dried her lonely tears away
The treasure eye found broken hearted
Was locked within my heart to stay.

(Then out across the waves)
(The blusbirds came one day)
Out o'er the silver sea
Your message brought to me.

(To sail my ship of love)
(Across the moonlight bay)
And anchor in the harbor
Of your heart.

The trade winds there on Bluebird Island
Soon dried her lonely tears away
The treasure eye found broken hearted
Was locked within my heart to stay...
