Reese Lansangan - Islands lyrics

Don’t you come back here asking me why I’ve spent nights bleeding myself dry I’m fighting beasts I’m climbing tress and towers I’m whole, alive, breathing That’s what matters I want to hold you but my body’s moving away Gotta let you go, oh But when I do my mind just keeps on finding a way to you again Self-control won’t help me so don’t come running back Back, back If you don’t mean to stay Just stay away, don’t come back Back, back Empty hands Knees to the ground Better watch me pray That I won’t give my honesty away ‘Cause when I say “be gone” my stubborn tongue is faking My heart won’t echo sounds my mouth is making And I want to hold you but my body’s moving away Gotta let you go, oh But when I do my mind just keeps on finding a way to you again Self-control won’t help me so don’t come running back Back, back If you don’t mean to stay Just stay away, don’t come back Back, back Back, back If you don’t mean to stay Just stay away, don’t come back Back, back Saying goodbye to the islands that we named Oh the ocean is calling my name Bye to the earth that we have claimed Oh the ocean is calling my name Bye to the islands that we named Oh the ocean is calling my name Bye to the earth that we have claimed Oh the ocean is calling my name Bye to the islands that we named Oh the ocean is calling my name Bye to the earth that we have claimed Oh the ocean is calling my name Bye to the islands that we named Oh the ocean is calling my name Bye to the earth that we have claimed Oh the ocean is calling my name Don’t you come back here asking me why (Bye to the islands that we named Oh the ocean is calling my name) I’m whole, alive, breathing That’s what matters (Bye to the earth that we have claimed Oh the ocean is calling my name) I’ve spent nights bleeding myself dry (Bye to the islands that we named Oh the ocean is calling my name) I’m whole, alive, breathing That’s what matters (Bye to the earth that we have claimed Oh the ocean is calling my name) I’m fighting beasts I’m climbing tress and towers (Bye to the islands that we named Oh the ocean is calling my name) I’m whole, alive, breathing That’s what matters (Bye to the earth that we have claimed Oh the ocean is calling my name) I’m fighting beasts I’m climbing tress and towers (Bye to the islands that we named Oh the ocean is calling my name) Bye to the earth that we have claimed Oh the ocean is calling
