Islands Lyrics
(Ha ha haa)
(Ha ha haa)
(Ha ha haa)Waiting for the bus stop
Waiting for the concrete black top to settle down
Long enough for me to get off
And get a little ground
(Ha ha haa)
Im ready for the sea change
Helpless felt this coming from a mile away
And now youre looking at me babe,
And how well separate if we can
'Cause I still count on one hand
The number of good men I knowIts like Im standing on the edge with just a telephone wire
Trying to get to you first to say the worlds on fire
Holding my breath until I know youre alright
Because the water will only rise
When will you realize (ha ha haa)
You must become an island
(Ha ha haa) you must become an island
(Ha ha haa) you must become an island
(Ha ha haa) and see for yourself
Thats what I am(Ha ha haa)You always dirty up the windows
If you keep em at bay that way no ones gonna surprise you
By getting too close
Anybody but me though
Youve made exceptions to you rules
And now were staring down truth
Neither one of us wants to knowIts like Im standing on the edge with just a telephone wire
Trying to get to you first to say the worlds on fire
Holding my breath until I know youre alright
Because the water will only rise
When will you realize (ha ha haa)
You must become an island
(Ha ha haa) you must become an island
(Ha ha haa) you must become an island
(Ha ha haa) and see for yourself the horizon is all we have
See for yourself the horizon is all we have(Ha ha haa)
(Ha ha haa)Holding my breath until I know youre alright
Because the water will only rise
