Back to the Island |
| Now the day is gone and I sit alone and think of you, girl |
| What can I do without you in my life? |
| I guess that our guessing game just had to end that way |
| The hardest one to lose of all the games we played |
| But the time is past for living in a dream world |
| Lying to myself can’t make that scene |
| Of wondering if you love me or just making a fool of me |
| Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island |
| And watch the sun go down (and watch the sun go down) |
| Hear the sea roll in (listen to the sea roll in) |
| But I’ll be thinking of you (yes and I’ll be thinking of you) |
| And how it might have been (thinking how it might have been) |
| Hear the night birds cry (listen to the night birds cry) |
| Watch the sunset die (sit and watch the sunset die) |
| Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island |
| For all the sunny skies, it’s raining in my heart |
| I know down in my soul I’m really gonna miss you |
| But it had to end this way with all the games we played |
| Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island |
| And watch the sun go down (sit and watch the sun go down) |
| And hear the sea roll in (listen to the sea roll in) |
| But I’ll be thinking of you (yes and I’ll be thinking of you) |
| And how it might have been (thinking how it might have been) |
| Hear the night birds cry (listen to the night birds cry) |
| Watch the sunset die (sit and watch the sunset die) |
| Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island |
| And watch the sun go down (sit and watch the sun go down) |
| Hear the sea roll in (listen to the sea roll in) |
| But I’ll be thinking of you (yes and I’ll be thinking of you) |
| And how it might have been (thinking how it might have been) |
| Hear the night birds cry (listen to the night birds cry) |
| Watch the sunset die (sit and watch the sunset die) |
| Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island |
| Watch the ships come in (sit and watch the sun go down) |
| Wonder where they’ve been (listen to the sea roll in) |
| But I’ll be thinking of you, darling (yes and I’ll be thinking of you)… |
