Lyrics
[verse]
Down where the palm trees lean against the sea
There's a girl who taught me how a heart could beat
Grew up dancing in a kitchen full of song
Never thought that I'd be gone this long
[verse]
She's got the ocean in the way she walks
Got the rhythm of the island in her talk
I left my heart back where the sunset burns
Counting all the days until I return
[chorus]
Half of my soul is still down in Havana, ooh na na
Half of my heart still moving to the rhythm, ooh na na
Take me back to where the music never stops
Where the night is warm and the love never drops
Havana, ooh na na, that's where I left my heart
Havana, ooh na na, right from the very start
[verse]
City lights are different, colder, further away
Nothing sounds the same when you're so far away
I keep the memory close like a photograph
Dreaming of the streets where we used to laugh
[chorus]
Half of my soul is still down in Havana, ooh na na
Half of my heart still moving to the rhythm, ooh na na
Take me back to where the music never stops
Where the night is warm and the love never drops
Havana, ooh na na, that's where I left my heart
Havana, ooh na na, right from the very start
[bridge]
Ooh na na, ooh na na
Take me back to the island where you are
Ooh na na, ooh na na
That's where my heart still stays, no matter how far
[chorus]
Half of my soul is still down in Havana, ooh na na
Half of my heart still moving to the rhythm, ooh na na
Take me back to where the music never stops
Where the night is warm and the love never drops
