Island — текст песни (Gerry Rafferty)

Wake up my love, the sun is shinin` out there, blue sky up above
It`s a brand new day, let`s walk outside and let that breeze blow all our cares away.

You know that way back there in that city life
We`ve been strangers for so long
Now that I feel like I know you again
I want to stay.

So long ago (yeah), we had a love so warm and bright when we had just begun
That was my last dream, since then I`ve watched the rest crumble one by one.

Since we`ve been runnin` silent yeah it`s felt so right
It`s gettin` closer now everyday
Now that I feel like I know you again
I want to stay.

(sha la la sha la la)

You know that on my own I don`t make it alone
I need someone who needs me
I only know that wherever you are
I want to be.

But from now on, we won`t worry about a thing, yeah the past is gone
This is our last day (yeah), we`re gonna make sweet love before we sail away.

(fade)
sha la la sha la la
