The Islander Lyrics by Chiwolf

Escape The Play

2019

I can tell by the way you move
That you're running in the night
Oh I can tell by the way you go round
The stars for you ignite
And I see
You breathe
And by the shore
You burn slowly
I can tell by the way the wind blows
You starboard from the dark side
Oh I can tell by the way the storm howls
The ocean soon will subside
And I see
You breathe
By the shore
Time weeps
I wave in the ride
As I stand right next to the fire
It’s what I’m waiting for
Up all night blood shot tired
And I see
The way you sail into the abyss
I believe
The light is on the way
(Back to me)
I can tell by the way you loom
That you’re lost out in the haze
But I can tell that you'll come out somehow
Just have a little faith
And I breathe
So deep
And by the shore
Time’s asleep
A word from the wise
You don't want to wait to get older
So what are we waiting for
The ocean is freezing over
And I see
The way you sailing too too open
I believe
The light is on the way
I wave in the ride
As I stand right next to the fire
It's what I've been a-waiting for
Up all night bloodshot tired
And I see
The way you sailing right back for me
I believe
The light is on the way
But don't go down
I can hardly wait long any longer
Said don't wait round
I can hardly wait long any longer
Said don’t wait round
I can hardly wait no longer
I can’t wait no more
No, I can’t wait no more
Been waiting for
Been waiting for so long
Been waiting for nights and days
Been waiting for so long
Been waiting for nights and days
Been waiting for the final call
Been waiting for nights and days
Been waiting for so long
Been waiting for nights and days
Been waiting for the final call
Been waiting for nights and days
Been waiting for the final call
Been waiting for nights and days
Been waiting for the final call
Been waiting for nights and days
Been waiting for the final call
Been waiting for nights and days
