islands - washington irving (uk) lyrics

[verse 1]
tie my hands tight behind my back
i might get free
say a few words, put my head in a sack
and launch me into the sea
i wonder how long before i sink without a song
the sun’s in my back and i’m staring straight down

[chorus]
this is a mountain waiting to rise
this is a man face down in the drink
while every landmass tries to survive
i am an island trying to sink

[verse 2]
now i’m out here, caught in the current
and you’re drifting toward me
and you’re an island, face up and breathing
like you’re queen of the sea
i wonder how long before you rise and take your crown
i see you smile, take a breath, roll over and starе straight down

[chorus]
take my hand and open your eyеs
we’ve come at last right down to the brink
now you’re attached, i hope you realize
i am an island trying to sink
[flute instrumental]

[chorus]
this is a mountain waiting to rise
this is a man face down in the drink
while every landmass tries to survive
i am an island trying to sink

take my hand and open your eyes
we’ve come at last right down to the brink
now you’re attached, i hope you realize
i am an island trying to sink
