(words & music by polynesian cultural centre - tepper - bennett) Drums of the islands you're beating in my heart You're with me no matter where i roam If ever i wander if ever we're apart I know that you will lead me home If i should journey across the deep blue sea I'll never forget these coral shores Drums of the islands i hear you calling me And i'll return forever yours I love each valley each grain of sand each hill The flowers the music of the isles These are the things i love and always will Though i may roam ten thousand miles
