Intro: There's nothing stopping you from writing this all down You can't ask why, You just have to believe There's nothing i can do, you're so far from me now If i look back at all that history I see Such a grand island You were my safety Such a grand island You would have taken me for your own Addicted to the sky, first kin to the water The plans we made, the time we sacrificed I watched you as your life opened like a flower Now it's too late to try and change our minds Such a grand island You were my safety Such a grand island You would have taken me for your own I've never seen a light in this life until tonight I never did what's right though I tried to get it right Ah, You gave your best to me and I gave it back to you I needed something to believe in (ah) Such a grand island You were my safety Such a grand island Would you still take me? Such a grand island ah, you were my safety Such a grand island You would have taken me for your own
