Island |
Wake up my love, the sun is shinin’out there, 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 runnin’silent 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) |
