Island Lights

Somehow We have to make a start To make it back before the dark And somehow We have to go on apart The island lights are turning on We have to move forwards And fight our tears We have to keep going Or stay right here We'll be right here Till the morning comes Oh, we'll be right here Till the morning comes You are my song and my silence The only one I confide in You are my sun and this winter never thaws Nothing seems to grow here Nothing seems to grow here anymore Right now Standing the way we are The island lights look just like stars Some day When someone else has your love We won't come here anymore We have to move forwards And fight our fears We have to keep going Or stay right here We'll stay right here Till the morning comes Oh, we'll be right here Till the morning comes You are my song and my silence The only one I confide in You are my sun and this winter never thaws And nothing seems to grow here Nothing seems to grow here Blame it on those cold and lonely winter days Blame it on the clouds for always bringing rain Blame it on the sky for why I feel this way It's funny how the season never seems to change But you are my song and my silence The only one I confide in You are my sun and this winter never thaws Nothing seems to grow here anymore Nothing seems to grow here anymore --- Island Lights - Birdy
