lyrics

Tahiti
(Maddy Rodriguez)

CHORUS A:
If I had a genie, I’d make one wish
I’d go to Tahiti and forget all of this
Oh I’d love to go, ‘cause I had a bad day
And I need to get away

I remember a picture in
A Travel magazine
I could swear that I fell in love
With the gorgeous tropical scene
Sometimes livin’ in the daily grind
Can make it hard to smile
Don’t mean to complain but it’d be nice
To leave it for a while

And they say
That Tahiti is the place
Where you can get away
Tell me do you feel the same?
‘Cause I’ve been feeling down
So I gotta go somehow
Could use a paradise right now
To get me off the ground

CHORUS A

CHORUS B:
I wanna go to Tahiti,
I can see the ocean line
Where everyone’s in bikinis
‘Cause they know the sun will shine
I wanna swim with the fish, jump in a waterfall
A place where you don’t need to think at all
I wanna go to Tahiti;
Forget about life for a while

Just about, well, everything
Went horribly wrong today
I know they were stupid little things
So I guess I exaggerate, no, no

But those things,
Can make you lose your sleep at night
There’s just too much on your mind
You wanna leave it all behind


CHORUS A
