Island

Sometimes it seems like only yesterday
 Other times more than a million years
 Oh little girl, sweeter than an angel
 When I think of her I laugh and drown in my own tears
 You drew your first breath so close to me
 Now we've been apart for years and years
 She can wash the land away, tides turning everyday
 All I really came to say is, I still love you my sweet island
 Maybe time will someday build a bridge for us
 Somewhere further down the line
 As a time to call arise, I know
 But for you this song will show you who's on my mind
 She can wash the land away, tides turning everyday
 All I really came to say is, I still love you my sweet island
 Whatever they might say about my silence
 Remember I'm an island too
 We're connected by more than an ocean
 My blood runs in you
 She can wash the land away, tides turning everyday
 All I really came to say is, come see me
 I still love you my sweet island
 I still love you my sweet island
