We are now an island Lyrics

All of this being way over your head

So you'd rather do something else instead

Looking for something

That's got to be right

Coming to me

In the middle of the night

Bigger than anything else that you've found

Something you need to get your head around

What will be will always be

We've been given to understand

Mountains come up from out of the sea

And we are now an island

All of this happens too slow to see

Like finger nails grow on your hand

Land gets drawn down in front of me

And we are now an island

Lying here with my eyes wide

Letting out what comes from inside

Forever hoping

For something to keep

Maybe perhaps

I can now get some sleep

Am I being taken along for a ride?

When the ground that I walk on has born and died

What will be will always be

We've been given to understand

Mountains come up from out of the sea

And we are now an island

All of this happens too slow to see

Like finger nails grow on your hand

Land gets drawn down in front of me

And we are now an island
