I've been workin' late on Friday night
And I'm goin' in on Caturday
I've been thinkin' bout the island light
As another summer peels away
Hanging in this curtain
Grey skies over urban
Lately my mind's been wanderin'
To where the horizon shoulda been
Touch, but I can't be certain
Where it all ends I start again
Let's blow it off
I wanna get away
I wanna hear some music
I wanna hear ya say
All the world's an island, life is free
Half a million friends, but I'm lonely
As the glaciers fall and raise the sea
Won't you save some island life for me?
Why can't we all just live in peace?
Sometimes I break down in the morning and cry
Scream out in the night
Only to realize
There's nothing in the world we can't do
Anything we set our minds to
Maybe someday I won't always be alone
Hanging in this curtain
Grey skies over urban
Lately my mind's been wanderin'
Right over the silver lining
South, to the blue shining
A postcard sent home to mom
All the world's an island, life is free
Every day looks still more crazy
Greta sailed the wide and open sea
For to save some island life for she
For we
