 Music and Lyrics by Cindy Bullens

|
Soloist
|
There's a lot of things we just don't say
About this place that we call home to people from away;
It's better for our health to keep things to ourselves,
You never know when that ancient chain will break.
|
|
Chorus
|
We live on an island surrounded by water,
We live on an island surrounded by:
Suspicion, scandal, rumors throughout,
Gossip, frustration, disappointment and doubt;
We live on an island surrounded by ...
... What about love?
|
|
Verse
|
There's no other place we'd rather be
To spend the days that we've got left
Living with the sea
So when all is said and done, with all that can go wrong;
Island life is the way life's supposed to be
|
|
Chorus
|
We live on an island surrounded by water,
We live on an island surrounded by:
Protection, shelter and good common sense,
Affection, commitment, family and friends;
We live on an island surrounded by ...
... What about love?
|
|
Soloist
|
And like an island we can feel all alone
and we hurt each other,
And like this big blue sea we surround ourselves
We depend on one another!
|
|
Chorus
|
We live on an island surrounded by water,
We live on an island surrounded by:
Protection, shelter and good common sense,
Affection, commitment, family and friends;
We live on an island surrounded by water,
We live on an island surrounded by:
... What about love?
|
|
Soloist
|
And like an island we can feel all alone
and we hurt each other,
And like this big blue sea we surround ourselves
We depend on one another!
|
|
Chorus
|
We live on an island surrounded by water,
We live on an island surrounded by:
Protection, shelter and good common sense,
Affection, commitment, family and friends;
We live on an island ...
We live on an island ...
We live on an island surrounded by ...
WHAT ABOUT LOVE?
