Lyrics
Island In The Sun
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.
Is not what you got
It’s what you give
It’s not how you die
It’s how you live
It’s not what you read
It’s what you solve
It’s not what you keep now
It’s what you let go
Well, now now easy does it
Make this moment last
Don’t worry about the future
Don’t forget about the past
It don’t really matter
Where I’ve been
Or what I’ve done
I just keep on searching
For that island in the sun
I’m just searching
For that island in the sun
I’m gonna find my island in the sun
No no location
It ain’t on the map
It takes concentration
All into your lap
It ain’t in the whiskey
It ain’t in the drug
It could be a woman with you
Who leads you to love
Easy does it
Make this moment last
Don’t worry about the future
Don’t forget about the past
Don’t really matter
Where I’ve been
Or what I’ve done
I just keep on searching
For that island in the sun
I’m just searching
For that island in the sun
I’m gonna keep on searching
Island in the sun
Once upon a time
I couldn’t move without a spliff
Then I wouldn’t stop hiding
I got so much more to give
I got so much more to give
I got so much love to give
It don’t really matter
Where I’ve been
Or what I’ve done
I just keep on searching
For my island in the sun
I’m just searching
I’m gonna keep on searching
For that island in the sun
Island in the sun
I got to keep on searching
Island in the sun
