The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Now the day is gone and I sit alone and think of you, girl

What can I do without you in my life?

I guess that our guessing game just had to end that way

The hardest one to lose of all the games we played

But the time is past for living in a dream world

Lying to myself can't make that scene

Of wondering if you love me or just making a fool of me

Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island

And watch the sun go down (sit and watch the sun go down)

Hear the sea roll in (listen to the sea roll in)

But I'll be thinking of you (yes, and I'll be thinking of you)

And how it might have been (thinking how it might have been)

Hear the night birds cry (listen to the night birds cry)

Watch the sunset die (sit and watch the sunset die)

Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the Island

Well all the fun has died, it's raining in my heart

I know down in my soul I'm really gonna miss you

But it had to end this way with all the games we played

Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the Island
