Touch down in azure water sun stays out all day
Poincianas coral beach outside our room
Your kisses leave me speechless ten thousand details
Flicker flash across your features like a gold perfume

Soft winds come fill our sails, dolphins set our course
Gliding over blue champagne, sailing the Sea Horse
Feel the sun caress your skin, passions rise like flame
Setting sun crescendos now

Palm-marina, water-taxi, harbour-view café
Tinkling glasses, candlelight, a crowded room
To the beat of samba nova, lovers gently sway
Twilight passes, cool sea breezes, play our favourite tune

Disappearing evening clouds, canopy of stars
Mirrored in the silver bay, you are in my arms
Smooth as satin is the night, warm and sweet your breath
I can hear your melting heart

Robert Allen Palmer (19 January 1949 – 26 September 2003) was an English singer-songwriter[1] and musician. He was known for his distinctive soulful voice, eclectic mix of musical styles on his albums, combining soul, jazz, rock, pop, reggae and blues and sartorial acumen. He found success both in his solo career and with the Power Station, and had Top 10 songs in both the UK and the US.

His iconic music videos directed by British fashion photographer Terence Donovan for the hits “Addicted to Love” and “Simply Irresistible” featured identically dressed dancing women with pale faces, dark eye makeup and bright red lipstick, which resembled the women in the art of Patrick Nagel, an artist popular in the 1980s. Palmer’s involvement in the music industry commenced in the 1960s, covered four decades and included a spell with Vinegar Joe.
