The island sun has cooked us all day
Now my feelings for you are a simmer
And the evening calls.
Let's listen
And follow
Last night's troubles are a whisper
Carried away on a breeze
Washing on someone else's shore
And we are a hundred miles in the now.
Give me words of safety
To threaten my sorrows from plundering in again
Tonight
I can't make you free and you...
Well you can't make me whole.
I know what you did over there
But the island says it'll be alright.
I bet you didn't know i still have poetry for you baby
These island pheromones do it to me every time
Why must you leave me again tonight?
I too can be held by another
But why
Must we do this to each other
Every time
There's a bay in montego where you like to escape
Does the island do it for you baby?
Here
We can be alone here
Tell me again
Slowly this time that I might understand
What fears you baby?
What fears you baby?
Say it's not this island life
With me.
