Verse:
Holding you close, undisturbed before a fire,
The pressure in my chest when you breathe in my ear;
We both knew this would happen when you first appeared,
My lady of the island.
verse 2 (same as above)
The brownness of your body in the fire glow
Except the places where the sun refused to go.
Our bodies were a perfect fit,
in afterglow we lay,
My lady of the island.
Letting myself wander through the world inside your eyes
You know I'd like to stay here until every tear runs dry.
Harmony part:
/ / / / / / /
My lady of the island.
verse 3:
Wrapped around each other in the peeping sun,
Beams of sunshine light the stage, the red light's on.
I never want to finish what I've just begun with you,
My lady of the island.

End on Eb.
