Dominica (/ˌdɒmɪˈniːkə/ DOM-i-NEE-kə;French: Dominique; Island Carib: Wai‘tu kubuli), officially the Commonwealth of Dominica, is an island country in the Lesser Antilles region of the Caribbean Sea, south-southeast of Guadeloupe and northwest of Martinique. Its area is 750 square kilometres (290 sq mi) and the highest point is Morne Diablotins, at 1,447 metres (4,747 ft) elevation. The population was 72,301 at the 2014 census. The capital is Roseau, located on the leeward side of the island.
The island was originally inhabited by the Kalinago/Arawak and later colonised by the Europeans, predominately by the French, who arrived at the island on Sunday, 3 November 1493 ("Sunday" = "Domenica" in Italian). Great Britain took it over in 1763 after the Seven Years' War and gradually established English as the official language. The island republic gained independence in 1978.
Its name is pronounced with emphasis on the third syllable, related to its former Dominique. Dominica has been nicknamed the "Nature Isle of the Caribbean" for its unspoiled natural beauty. It is the youngest island in the Lesser Antilles, still being formed by geothermal-volcanic activity, as evidenced by the world's second-largest hot spring, Boiling Lake. The island has lush mountainous rainforests, and is the home of many rare plants, animals, and bird species. There are xeric areas in some of the western coastal regions, but heavy rainfall occurs inland. The Sisserou parrot (also known as the imperial amazon), is found only on Dominica and is the island's national bird and features on the national flag. Dominica's economy depends on tourism and agriculture.

Genres: Drama, Short,I gotta let you go
I gotta let you go
No more sleepless nights
I gotta let you go
I gotta let you go
I need a man who treats me right. (2x)
I want somebody
Who's always there
When I'm down to show you care
Searched the whole world over
For love that's true
Someone to tell me "I love you"
But it won't be my heart that's breaking
Cause I won't be the one to cry
I have taken all that I am taking
Now the time has come for us to say good-bye
I gotta let you go
I gotta let you go
No more sleepless nights
I gotta let you go
I gotta let you go
I need a man who treats me right
I want somebody
That's here to stay
Cause I need good lovin not a maid
Not a part-time lover
To treat me like you do
You wanna have your cake and eat it too
Just pack up all your lies
Get up and go
Cause now it's much too late to care.
I've taken all that I am taking
Oh don't move for me
This time I won't be there
