Islands (Hey Ocean!)

If the sun is to set To leave us dark with regret I will work up the strength To pull our earth back round again And if the ocean should freeze Before we've sailed all the seas I will drop to my knees Until Poseidon agrees We could build an island You and I could swim beside Where we could ride the tides Until we fall asleep at night (2x) If you get scared of the space Between now and those days Then I will take you away Somewhere fear has no place We'd make ashes of our clothes And grow a garden out of those And watch the water as it rose To bring the ocean to our toes We could build an island You and I could swim beside Where we could ride the tides Until we fall asleep at night (2x) It's true Distance just makes my heart grow for you And everything I want for us to do To build an island between me and you Build an island between me and you We could build an island You and I could swim beside And we could ride the tides Until we fall asleep We could build an island You and I could swim beside Where we could ride the tides Until we fall asleep at night (2x) We could build an island We could ride the tides Oh, we could build an island Until we fall asleep at night...
