lyrics
 
For the last few weeks, I have been trying to remember a song. I do not know the title or the artist. It may have come out in the 80s. All I know is that it mentioned something about the moonlight over Montego Bay. This seemed to be the chorus of the song but not the title. I tried Google and databases for lyrics but can't find what I'm looking for.

I was having marital troubles at the time and every time I heard the lyrics, I wanted to take off to Montego Bay to get away from it all. It is so surprising to me that I can't remember it because it was kinda 'my song' at that time.

I know this board has helped others with these kinda things so I'm reaching out to you.
Does anyone remember this song?
Thank you.

I think it is called "Jamaica" or close to that.

Maybe it was Kokomo by the Beach Boys .

The name of the song is "Montego Bay", sung by Bobby Bloom. If you go to youtube you can watch him singing it.

No....I have checked out all these. ...not them. Thanks for replying.

Maybe, back then, I was lost in a fantasy world and dreamed the whole thing!!

WOW is right!
If I don't find it there, I definitely did dream it.
Thanks so much. That is a great reference site.

Add the word "song" to your search and you come up with the artist, Bobby Bloom.
