Heather Nova - Island lyrics

Yeah, there are parts of me he'll never know My wild horses and my river beds And in my throat, voices he'll never hear He pulls at me like a cherry tree And I can still move but I don't speak about it Pretend I'm crazy, pretend I'm dead He's too scared to hit me now He'll bring flowers instead I need an island Somewhere to sink a stone I need an island Somewhere to bury you Somewhere to go And the dogwoods shimmer in the October sun "Oh sweet thing," he sings to me, "You're the only one." I need an island Somewhere to sink a stone I need an island Somewhere to bury you Somewhere I need an island Somewhere to sink a stone I need an island Somewhere to bury you Somewhere to go And I don't know why I can't tell my sister He spat in my face again And I don't want to die here You know that dream when your feet won't move You want to come but your body won't let you He steals it from me He steals it from me It shines like sweat Like j**els Like something that has died too soon He f**s with the beauty A kiss, a kick, a kiss, a kick A kiss kiss kick kick kick He steals it from me It's out of my hands again I need an island Somewhere to sink a stone I need an island Somewhere to bury you Somewhere I need an island Somewhere to sink a stone I need an island Somewhere to bury you Somewhere to go To go I need an island I need an island I need an island Somewhere to sink a stone I need an island Somewhere to bury you Somewhere to go I need an island Somewhere to sink a stone I need an island Somewhere to bury you Somewhere I need an island Somewhere to sink a stone I need an island Somewhere to bury you
