An Island Now Songtext
von The Canvas Waiting

Breathe easy, love, you′ve made it now
Stand tall and proud on your rusty bow
No, the sight of land won't let you down
When the fog has cleared
I′m an island now

I was blind to think you'd always be
Bold enough to stay close to me
When the rain came down, you were washed away
I'm an island now in the open sea

But it′s OK
′Cause I fall asleep with dignity
And you're safe
′Cause you filled that hole before it was empty
And I can write you off
But give me back my faith in love


Should I wait for you? I don't think I should
You didn′t wait for me when I thought you would
And if your colors change with the tides, I fear
I'm an island now, you were never here

But it′s OK
'Cause I fall asleep with dignity
And you're safe
′Cause you filled that hole before it was empty
And I can write you off
But give me back my faith in love

And oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
And oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

But it′s OK
'Cause I fall asleep with dignity
And you′re safe
'Cause you filled that hole before it was empty
And I can write you off

I thought I heard bells, but I confused the sound
I′m sorry, love
I'm an island now
