You say that you have travelled And seen the whole wide world By train and plane and ships untamed With sails both full and furled Yet have you seen the Island With mountains dressed in cloud And golden sands No foreign land can stand so tall and proud ee yo deodle de doo Deodle do dee yo You say that you’ve seen beauty in countries far and wide The desert plains and forest rains And skies where stars collide But have you seen the Island when storms are chasing near The lightning flash The thunders bash Till blue skies reappear You say that you know of contentment A place where peace is grown Where friends are as true As the big sky is blue You’ve found your Island home So when you say you have travelled Make sure you tell them you’ve seen There’s no place like Lord Howe The island of your dreams
