Island lyrics
Wake up my love, the sun is shinin out that blue sky up above
It s a brand new day, let s walk outside and let that breeze blow all our cares away.
You know that way back there in that city life
We ve been strangers for so long
Now that I feel like I know you again
I want to stay.
So long ago (yeah), we had a love so warm and bright when we had just begun
That was my last dream, since then I ve watched the rest crumble one by one.
Since we ve been on this island yeah it s felt so right
It s gettin closer now everyday
Now that I feel like I know you again
I want to stay.
(sha la la sha la la)
You know that on my own I don t make it alone
I need someone who needs me
I only know that wherever you are
I want to be.
But from now on, we won t worry about a thing, yeah the past is gone
This is our last day (yeah), we re gonna make sweet love before we sail away.
(fade)
sha la la sha la la
