Isola Bella

Woke up from a dream on a beach down in Italy
The rocks they were warm under skin
The sun in your eyes made them look like honey
And I could've dived right in
Was it the 3rd glass of vino, maybe the 4th?
I guess I stopped counting the more that we talked
All I know is I got close
And you left a gap in your walls
So I could visit
Before you shut the door

So I tried with all my might
To go back to sleep
To find you next to me
Back at our spot on Isola Bella
Watch the sun set, into the sea
If I could close my eyes
Go back in time
I wouldn't have let you leave
But it was only a dream

Skipped pebbles on an ocean as flat as can be
Laughed as all of mine sank straight away
Got a little sunkissed on the salt scented air
Before we said goodbye to the day
Ordered cocktails in a language we can't even speak
Carved initials in a love heart
On your favourite tree
I'm not one to show much
But you see right through me
Thought maybe for a moment
We were meant to be

So I tried with all my might
To go back to sleep to find you next to me
Back at our spot on Isola Bella
Watch the sun set, into the sea
If I could close my eyes
Go back in time
I wouldn't have let you leave
But it was only a dream
Only a dream
Only a dream
Only a dream
