Island In the Sun Lyrics
Said it a million times, I hate to see cryin.
I'd give a million lives to see you smilin'.
If it were you and I stuck on an island
Yo, I think i'd be smiling.
If it were just you and I play the best of bob marley, no woman no cry
I make a guitar out of palm trees in case you crash-landed and you couldn't find your ipod
Make a wish upon a starfish, kiss under the waterfall, coconut sidedish, like paradise lost, but now I'm found.
Chorus:
Everytime I get a little bit closer you drift so far away,
Everytime I get a little bit closer you leave me right here.
Like an island in the sun, I'm waiting patiently, waiting for you, to land on me.
Like an island in the sun, I guess I wait and see, waiting for you, to land on me.
Collecting seashells on the seafloor
Smoke a lil' seaweed in the seashore
Just me and you, we don't need more
Except the sun and the air and the stars and the mountains, see I'm a real hippie kid so just the two us is something I could dig, building castles in the sky, building castles in the sky.
Chorus:
Everytime I get a little bit closer you drift so far away,
Everytime I get a little bit closer you leave me right here.
Like an island in the sun, I'm waiting patiently, waiting for you, to land on me.
Like an island in the sun, I guess I wait and see, waiting for you, to land on me.
Cisco:
Just steer the boat, but I dont know where to go, my compass is broke, lost in babylon a long time a go, every time I get a little bit closer you drift so far away baby baby baby baby baby I'm a lonely one.
Like an island in the sun, I'm waiting patiently, waiting for you, to land on me.
Like an island in the sun, I guess i wait and see, waiting for you, to land on me.
