lyrics

oh, in my bones i still feel that island wind
and i know, it'll blow me home again

i've got to try city living for a while,
though i wait for the ocean on my skin

lets try and stick together, and overcome, in spite of everything
our trials will be undone, and we will walk tall once more

stuck in my ways i been trying for a while
to write away my weaknesses

but i thrive on life and the wonders it supplies
so i guess i'm doing fine

stay here a while til the road beckons us
i'm glad you're here with me
