[Islands are mountain-tops] |
|
It's always a struggle |
|
To let somebody go |
|
It's a natural desire |
|
To own your lover, I know |
|
And you can screw a man down |
|
Until he takes to drinking |
|
He'll give you all of his money |
|
You still won't know what he's thinking |
|
Take me to the fantastic place |
|
Keep the rest of my life away |
|
Take me to the fantastic place |
|
Keep the rest of my life away |
|
Take me to the island |
|
I'll watch the rain over your shoulder |
|
The streetlights in the water |
|
The moment outside of real life |
|
I never could dream while I was sleeping |
|
Put your arms around my soul |
|
And take it dancing.. |
|
Take me to the fantastic place |
|
Keep the rest of my life away |
|
Take me to the fantastic place |
|
Keep the rest of my life away |
|
Take me to the island |
|
I'll watch the rain over your shoulder |
|
The streetlights on the wet stone |
|
The moment outside of real life |
|
Say you understand me |
|
And I will leave myself completely |
|
Forgive me if I stare |
|
But I can see the island behind your tired, troubled eyes |
|
Take me to the island |
|
I'll tell you all I never told you |
|
The boy I never showed you |
|
More than I gave in my life |
|
Take me by the hand |
|
You'll either kill me or you'll save me |
|
Take me to the island |
|
Show me what might be real life |
