Island Times

My girl and me in the starry glow, bottle's empty and the lights are low
Marvin Gaye on the radio, how sweet it is
Harbour lights seem to sing to me, just lay back, just let it be
Lazy up that energy, just take some time
Running round just to try to see, just one more hill to climb
But it was never in my heart, just in my mind...

I'll be singing 'bout island times
For so long you've been on my mind

Down at old Bob's bar and grill, catfish stew goin' by the smell
Friends hanging out by the ocean swell, into the night
Fisherman fixin up his line, lays it out on the Longleaf pine
Counting fish, maybe 8 or 9, he got just enough
Always knew I'd be back again, just can't stay away
This time Lord I'm coming home to stay

I'll be singing 'bout island times
For so long you've been on my mind

For too long I've been wandering
Now I'm back where my heart sings

And we're living on island time
For too long you been on my mind
And we're singing our island songs
That our fathers have loved so long
