Islands

The rain always ends up back in the river again
Oh, innocence is sometimes thrown into the lion's den
But I've made it this far as I lay in your arms
Lost as an island, a casualty of silence
It's killing me

And I don't mean to be a bother
But I was pondering if you'd cross an ocean for me
'Cause I just really need to know if this is love
Or are we simply sharing air to breathe

When the waves get rough will you be here when I wake up
When the waves get rough will you be here when I wake up

I fall asleep to lullabies built of thunder
Peace settles in, but then my mind plays the hunter
Thoughts pile up till their mountain tops
Pulling me along till I'm a little lost
It's killing me

And I don't mean to be a bother
But I was pondering if you'd cross an ocean for me
'Cause I just really need to know if this is love
Or are we simply sharing air to breathe

When the waves get rough will you be here when I wake up
When the waves get rough will you be here when I wake up

Here I stand in front of you
It's little overdue
Asking for a simple truth
Here I stand in front of you
It's little overdue
Asking for a simple truth

And I don't mean to be a bother
But I was pondering if you'd cross an ocean for me
'Cause I just really need to know if this is love
Or are we simply sharing air to breathe

When the waves get rough will you be here when I wake up
When the waves get rough will you be here when I wake up
When the waves get rough will you be here when I wake up
When the waves get rough will you be here when I wake up
