lyrics

ISLAND:

what was I before you awoke?
an island with no anchor
a throat without a song

i felt the future
like an infinite sea
and from beneath the waves
you spoke to me

tropic rising bring us heat
in your heart prepare a feast

sons and daughters of paradise
i waited my entire life
to see you

young one, be brave
feel the wonder
and follow where it goes
i warned take only what you need
but you want it all
i'm in love
with the light that comes

my eden lay before your eyes
could all it's glory ever suffice?
you hold tremendous appetite

am I truly tropic rising?
does my heart contain a feast?
child of the waters
will I give you everything?

young one, be brave
feel the wonder
and follow where it goes
i warned take only what you need
but you want it all
i'm in love
with the light that comes

from you
