Lady of the Island

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

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

My lady of the island

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
