It's been six years, the island's calling me home There's a tear in her eye cause she knows she'll soon be alone I've got a boat that floats, I'll be sailing away with the dawn She's got a good fishing line, there'll be plenty of time while I'm gone Now she's down on her knees, begging me please drop your suitcase and turn off the light Let me feel your tender body, just hold me close tonight Tides are rising, we're barely surviving, our scars are as deep as the sea She said when you come back from the island, I hope you remember me Now the sails are set, we're drifting apart I watch her waving goodbye, breaking my heart But I'll never know unless I go just one more time Back to the island I left, I left behind Now she's down on her knees, begging me please drop your suitcase and turn off the light Let me feel your tender body, just hold me close tonight Tides are rising, we're barely surviving, our scars are as deep as the sea She said when you come back from the island, I hope you remember me Now she's down on her knees, begging me please drop your suitcase and turn off the light Let me feel your tender body, just hold me close tonight Tides are rising, we're barely surviving, our scars are as deep as the sea She said when you come back from the island, I hope you remember me She said when you come back from the island, I hope you remember me
