Island Lyrics

John Power Island Lyrics

So I head towards the coast
It is always fresh and clear
Where there??s no familiar faces I can recognise
A place to go and to forget
I watch the seasons turn to years
But it still feels like yesterday
When the city burns so bright, bright enough to steal my sight
Lead me blindly on my way
horus 1
You can reach for the stars
When they fall, boy it breaks your heart
Know that fickle fashion fades so soon
Let??s build an island for me and you
Let??s build an island for all the world to see
you and me
as I weep, these tears I cry
I curse the day that fills my life
Now I run, but I can??t hide
From your love
Generations will replace
All these monuments in time
So don??t contaminate the innocence of pure of mind
With the ignorance of man
And if there??s one thing that I??ve learned
With my short time here on Earth
Not to criticise the little things people do or say
Just to recognise its worth
horus 2
You can reach for the stars
When they fall, boy it breaks your heart
Know that fickle fashion fades so soon
Let??s build an island for me and you
Let??s build an island for all the world to see
you and me
as I weep, these tears I cry
I curse the day that fills my life
Now I run, but I can??t hide
From your love
See your face amongst the crowds
Hear your voice in all these sounds
Now I run, but I can??t hide
From your love
From your love
