Island
Gerry Rafferty
Wake up my love, the sun is shininâ"š¬â"ž¢ out there, blue sky up above
Itâ"š¬â"ž¢s a brand new day, letâ"š¬â"ž¢s walk outside and let that breeze blow all our cares away.
You know that way back there in that city life
Weâ"š¬â"ž¢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 Iâ"š¬â"ž¢ve watched the rest crumble one by one.
Since weâ"š¬â"ž¢ve been runninâ"š¬â"ž¢ silent yeah itâ"š¬â"ž¢s felt so right
Itâ"š¬â"ž¢s gettinâ"š¬â"ž¢ 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 donâ"š¬â"ž¢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 wonâ"š¬â"ž¢t worry about a thing, yeah the past is gone
This is our last day (yeah), weâ"š¬â"ž¢re gonna make sweet love before we sail away.
