There's nothing stopping you from writing this all down   You can't ask why, you just have to believe   There's nothing I can do, you're so far from me now   If I look back at all that history I see      Such a grand island   You were my safety   Such a grand island   You would have taken me for your own      Addicted to the sky first kin to the water   The plans we made, the time we sacrificed   I watched you as your life opened like a flower   Now it's too late to try and change our minds      Such a grand island   You were my safety   Such a grand island   You would have taken me for your own      I've never seen a light in this life until tonight   I never did what's right though I tried to get it right   You gave your best to me and I gave it back to you   I needed something to believe in      Such a grand island   You were my safety   Such a grand island   Would you still take me      Such a grand island   You were my safety   Such a grand island   You would have taken me for your own
