🎵 “PORT MORESBY (Back in the 80s)”
(Retro Island Pop / Pacific Nostalgia Style)
Verse 1
First time in Moresbee, my brother,
City shining by the Coral Sea,
The mountains standing in the distance,
A place that captured a part of me.
Driving down the roads of Boroko,
Old PMVs passing through the street,
Radio playing those island melodies,
Everybody moving to the same heartbeat.
Pre-Chorus
From Koki to Hanuabada,
Where the ocean meets the shore,
Every sunset told a story,
Of the days we had before.
Chorus
Oh Port Moresby… take me back again,
To the 80s when we laughed with friends,
Under the palm trees, under the sky,
Those golden days will never die.
Port Moresby… my old hometown,
City lights when the sun goes down,
From Ela Beach to Waigani way,
I still remember yesterday.
Verse 2
Sunday afternoons at the seaside,
Families walking hand in hand,
Rugby games on dusty fields,
Young boys dreaming across the land.
The smell of rain on the hot road,
Trade winds blowing from the bay,
Mothers selling at the markets,
Smiling through another day.
Bridge
Remember those nights in old Boroko,
The music playing everywhere,
South Pacific breeze around us,
No worries floating in the air.
Before the towers touched the skyline,
Before the city moved so fast,
We were young and we were dreaming,
Holding memories built to last.
Final Chorus
Oh Port Moresby… take me home again,
To the 80s with my childhood friends,
Where the ocean kissed the golden sand,
Paradise in our own homeland.
Port Moresby… forever you’ll be,
The island city inside of me,
No matter how far I go away,
POM City lives in my heart today.
🎶 “POM City… my home by the sea…” 🎶
