The Gregg Allman Band - Island lyrics

Sometimes it seems like yesterday Other times more than a million years Oh little girl sweeter than an angel When I think of her I laugh, And drown in my own tears You draw your first breath so close to me Now we've been apart for years and years She can wash the land away, tides turning everyday, All I really came to say is I still love you my sweet Island Maybe times will someday build a bridge for us Somewhere father down the line; I know But for you this; to show you who's on my mind She can wash the land away, tides turning everyday, All I really came to say is I still love you my sweet Island Whatever they may say about my silence Remember I'm an Island too We're connected by more than an ocean My blood runs in you She can wash the land away, tides turning everyday, All I really came to say is I still love you my sweet Island
