The Island

from Viva! by Red Orkestra

/

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
