Violent Femmes - This Island Life lyrics

This tea's too strong for me As i await your company I had too much sun today Ocean waters wash away Nothing but the present Presenting its presence This island life Separate my right from my wrong No i am not pagan But my heart has been forsaken And the hand of god was on my mind It took some time from time to time Now in the course i know Time itself will go when This island life Separates my right from my wrong You forgot your shoes and i I have sent a message but i There's so many stars in the sky It's the truths that will not lie There's a you wild native maiden Running mad and barefoot to the sea until This island life Separates my rights from my wrongs This island life Finally separates my right from my wrong This tea's too strong for me As i await more company I had too much sun today Dram of lands lying far away Pregnant with the present Presenting its presents This island life Separate my right from my wrong This island life Will separate my rights from my songs Separate my right from my wrong Gordon gano: vocal, guitar, violin Brian ritchie: upright ba**, electric sitar Guy hoffman: drums, percussion Luisa mann: vocal Recorded and mixed by david vartanian at dv's perversion room, milwuakee, wi
