Island In The Sun Lyrics


If you come with me
I will show you things you always dreamed of
We can make it happen on our island in the sunEvery morning we will swim in
Cool clear sparkling waters
Wrapped in purple satin nights
We'll make slow loveIf you come with me
Please bring all your secret yernings
You'll find what you need on our island in the sun
Close your eyes and you will hear the palm trees gently swaying
I can hardly wait to get my hands on youTime is wastin'
Come pluck the fruit your mind is tastin'
Or will you keep on chasin'
"if only it could be"If you come with me
We'll live happy ever after
We could be so free on our island in the sun
Secret thoughts your heart conceals like ancient buried treasures
Will at last be whispered in love's earTime is wastin'
Come pluck the fruit your mind is tastin'

Or will you keep on chasin'
"oh, if only it could be"Come with me
We could be so free
If you come with me
We could be so happy
Come to my island
Come to my island
Come to my island

Minnie Riperton (Nov 8, 1947 - Jul 12, 1979) was an American singer who is best remembered for her 1974 hit ballad, Lovin' You. The tragic 1979 death of 31-year-old Riperton silenced one of soul music's most unique and unforgettable voices - blessed with an angelic five-octave vocal range, she scored her greatest commercial success with the chart-topping pop ballad, "Lovin' You". Riperton was born in Chicago on November 8, 1947.
