Isles Songtext
von Fleet Foxes

Everyone stares when you walk in the room
They stare when you go
You′ve got so much control
How could anyone say no
They rarely do, that's why you′re you
And why you're winning
And I don't even miss you at all, no, no

Caught in the light, you would idly spin your skeleton ring
See it shine when you sing
To the window with no meaning
From Tennessee, your harmony would leave your spirit
And I don′t even miss you at all, no, no


Silver, the shores of isles I′ve known
Boulevards of dancing boats
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

You keep the old ember burning with the meadows in mind
As the coaches go by, these thoughts of you will die
They rarely do, that's why you′re you
And why you're winning
And I don′t even miss you at all, no, no

Silver, the shores of isles I've known
Boulevards of dancing boats
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Silver, the shores of isles I′ve known
