Sometimes it seems like yesterday   Other times more than a million years   Oh little girl sweeter than an angel   When I think of her I laugh,   And drown in my own tears      You draw your first breath so close to me   Now we've been apart for years and years      She can wash the land away, tides turning everyday,   All I really came to say is   I still love you my sweet Island      Maybe times will someday build a bridge for us   Somewhere father down the line; I know   But for you this;    to show you who's on my mind       She can wash the land away, tides turning everyday,   All I really came to say is   I still love you my sweet Island      Whatever they may say about my silence   Remember I'm an Island too   We're connected by more than an ocean   My blood runs in you      She can wash the land away, tides turning everyday,   All I really came to say is   I still love you my sweet Island
