Lyrics The Divine Comedy

The Divine Comedy

Island Life

Washing your face in the morning dew, island life

Gathering wood for the breakfast brew, island life

Watching the waves breaking on the shore

While cormorants circle up high

This is our island life

Sea and sun, earth and sky

Play all day, sleep all night

This is our island life, island life

Diving for pearls in the shallow sea, island life

Watching for ships from the tallest tree, island life

We can explore till the sun goes down

Then explore some more when we rise

This is our island life

Sea and sun, earth and sky

Play all day, sleep all night

This is our island life, island life

What yesterday was a distant dream

Has now been made real by the night

This is our island life

Sea and sun, earth and sky

Play all day, sleep all night

This is our island life, island life
