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…

Shaded by the mango tree
We could stay forever
Never leave this paradise

Too many sunsets

Dear Theodosia
How to say to you?
Sometime last night
Your mother breathed your name
And like a flame
That flickers out too soon
She died
