Lyrics

She lives out on an island, where the summer has begun
She came ashore then sailed away, left the city for the sun
And when she is away from me all my instincts come undone
She lives out on an island, and I am only one

I want her in the darkness, where I can't see her guiling face
I want to know the truth of her, not the dream that's in her place
I want to know she thinks of me, who the others will erase
She lives out on an island, where so far I cannot chase

She lives out on an island and I set out desperately
I need to find an answer that's so long eluding me
And if she will not come to me I will search until I'm free
She lives out on an island, and I am lost at sea
