The Island 03:47
lyrics
We were on our way From the island We were we smilin’ All the way We are much older now We were so young back then We were younger when We slipped away Now I’ve forgotten more Than most will ever know About the highs and lows Of a life worth living It’s not been an easy life, I suppose, But I wouldn’t trade it for one of those All even-keeled, no ebbs and flows With no real feeling, so… You and I stand Side-by-side and Live our lives As only two fools in love with this world can The day that we pushed out to sea The day you gave yourself to me Was the day I knew our fates to be Entwined as one Because as we sailed away Neither of us looked back to the bay Nothing to mourn, no good-byes to say We sailed gladly into the setting sun Now you and I stand Side-by-side and Live our lives As only two fools in love with this world can: Truth and beauty and love is life Truth and beauty and love is life Truth and beauty and love is life

Sacred Skin 04:55
lyrics
You shed your sacred skin Ready for your life to begin The home where you were born and raised Doesn’t offer you much these days In your family you see no future In your friends you have no past So you introduced love into the picture In the hopes that maybe it would last So shed your sacred skin And you’ll never need to hide yourself again Shed your sacred skin And begin To live You have formidable intentions If less-than-adequate means But you live in a dimension Where you can live according to your dreams So shed your sacred skin And you’ll never need to run away again Shed your sacred skin And begin To live And with every passing day you’ll find The less you miss the life you’ve left behind When the road we travel takes us away from home And into the future and the great unknown So let’s shed our sacred skin And we’ll never need to be alone again We’ll shed our sacred skin And begin To live

Wonders of the World 03:55
lyrics
I travelled the world ‘cause I was haunted Searching for the life and love I wanted And I lived Oh yes…I lived well All the fruits of life I tasted But the endless nights seem wasted Now, that I’ve come And found you here Now all the wonders of the world, dear Couldn’t tempt me away from here Now when the daylight disappears, love You and I, we’ll lie undone I scoured the earth to find you I loved more than a few girls mind you But of course you know You were not the only one But from the moment I laid eyes upon you I knew that I would lie beside you And that from now on You would be the only one And all the wonders of the world, dear Couldn’t tempt me away from here And when the daylight disappears, love You and I, we’ll lie undone You and I, we’ll lie undone
