Lyrics
Treasure Island
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.
Oh love is never easy
It's almost always out of your way
It's not the path of least resistance
It's not some words you get to say
It's a stream running up a mountain
It's a wave rolling out from the shore
Wish I could say I never felt that way before
I have a friend who's lonely
She is chasing after her dreams
And she is the one and only
One who knows how hard it could be
Chorus:
There's a treasure on her island
Buried in the city of news
Wish I could say we didn't have that much to lose
Yeh one friend tried to end it
He could not see the good in his life
In his mirror or his pocket
And his hopes had come down like a knife
It's a stream running up a mountain
It's a wave rolling out from the shore
Wish I could say I never felt that way before
There's a treasure on these islands
