Island

Sometimes it seems like 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 draw 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 times will someday build a bridge for us
 Somewhere father down the line; I know
 But for you this;
 to 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 may 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
 I still love you my sweet Island
