Island lyrics

Artist  : Heather Nova 
Song : Island



 Send "Island" Ringtone to your Cell 

 There are parts of me he’ll never know,

My
wild horses and my river beds,

And in my
throat voices he’ll never hear.

He pulls
at me like a cherry tree,

And I can still
move, but I don’t speak about it.

Pretend
I’m crazy, pretend I’m dead.

He’s to
scared to hit me now, he’ll bring flowers
istead.



I need an island, somewhere
to sink a stone

I need an island, somewhere
to bury you,

Somewhere to go.



And the dogwoods shimmer in october sun,

’oh sweet thing’ he sings to me,

’you’re the only one.’



I
need an island, somewhere to sink a stone

I
need an island, somewhere to bury you,
somewhere

I need an island, somewhere to
sink a stone

I need an island, somewhere to
bury you, somewhere to go.



And I
don’t know why I can’t tell my sister,

He spat in my face again, and I don’t want
to die here.

You know that dream when your
feet won’t move,

You want to come but
your body won’t let you.

He steals it
from me.he steals it from me.

It shines
like sweat, like jewels,

Like something
that has died to soon.

He fucks with the
beauty.

A kiss, a kick, a kiss, a kick, a
kiss kiss kick.

He steals it from me.

It’s out of my hands again.



I
need an island, somewhere to sink a stone

I
need an island, somewhere to bury you,

Somewhere to go, to go...
