Islands - Sara Bareilles
.
Long enough for me to get off and get a little ground
I’m ready for the sea change
Helpless felt this coming from a mile away
And now you’re looking at me babe,
and how we’ll separate if we can
Cause I still count on one hand
the number of good men I know
.
It’s like I’m standing on the edge
with just a telephone wire
Trying to get to you first to say the world’s on fire
Holding my breath until I know
you’re alright because the water will only rise
When will you realize
You must become an island
You must become an island
You must become an island
And see for yourself that that’s what I am
.
You always dirty up the windows
If you keep ‘em at bay
that way no one’s gonna surprise
you by getting too close
Anybody but me though
You’ve made exceptions to you rules
And now we’re staring down
truth neither one of us wants to know
.
It’s like I’m standing on the edge
with just a telephone wire
Trying to get to you first
to say the world’s on fire
Holding my breath until I know
you’re alright because the water will only rise
When will you realize
You must become an island
You must become an island
You must become an island
And see for yourself the horizon is all we have
The horizon is all we have
.
Holding my breath until I know
you’re alright because the water will only rise…

There’ll be girls across the nation that will eat this up.
Babe I know that it’s your soul but could you bottle it up.
Get down to the heart of it.
No...
You can have Manhattan
I know it's for the best
I'll gather up the avenues
And leave them on your doorstep
And I'll tip toe away
So you won't have to ...
Two by two lovers stand on the beach in Santa Monica
Pretty eyes, long hair, smells so sweet like summer in the air
Watch me as I fall
Into the water...
Door number two
It's for you, little lady
Is it all that you dreamed of?
How, if I knew, would've been there waiting
I'd have screamed out and jumped ...
There's a harvest each saturday night
At the bars filled with perfume and hitching a ride
A place you can stand for one night and get gone
It's clear ...
Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum
Bum bum bum bum bum bum
Bum bum bum bum bum bum
This is my winter song to you
The storm is coming soon
It rolls in fro...
