Now the day is done

And I sit alone and think of you girl

What would I do without you in my life

Wonderin' if you love me or

just playing a fool of me.

Well I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island

And watch the sun go down

Listen to the sea roll in

I'll be thinkin' of you

And how it might've been

Listen to the nightbird cry

Watch the sun set die

Well I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island

Threaded in my heart

Tears are falling down

I know down in my soul

I'm really gonna miss you

Caan't end this way

For all the games we've played.

So I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island

And watch the sun go down

Listen to the sea roll in

I'll be thinkin' of you

And how it might've been

Listen to the nightbird cry

Watch the sun set die

Well I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island

And watch the sun go down

Listen to the sea roll in

I'll be thinkin' of you

And how it might've been

Listen to the nightbird cry

Watch the sun set die

Well I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island

I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island
