Tales Of The Islander

Tales of the islander
 Tales of you and me
 Floating on our raft
 Down the Mother Mississippi
 Caught myself a fever
 Took a hospital stay
 Tied some sheets together
 Crawled down and was on my way
 I was on my way
 Let's take to the water
 Let our bodies roam free
 No more taste or smell
 No hear nor see
 Then greet the morning star
 As we dance along the beach
 Embrace this mighty sunrise
 As the cranes fly to meet it
 Cranes rise to meet it
 Birds call to me
 They call
 They call to me
 They call so deep
 Got to feel it all
 No time for sleep
 No time at all
 When they call
 They call to me
 They call so deep
 Got to feel it all
 No time for sleep
 No time at all
 We found a paradise
 And it's own garden gate
 Adam in a hat on a rowboat
 Phosphorescence in the wake
 The squall has passed
 And we're tied to the decay
 One day may the hurricanes come
 And carry us away
 Carry us away
 Waves call to me
 They call
 They call to me
 They call so deep
 Got to feel it all
 No time for sleep
 No time at all
 When they call
 They call to me
 They call so deep
 Got to feel it all
 No time for sleep
 No time at all
 Give me a sunset
 Of lilac, gold and green gray skies
 I'll give you spirals and zig zag lines
 It's the magic hour of a halcyon day
 And all of mankind stands there
 Barely awake
 A full moon rising
 On all of nature's powers
 Stars just observers
 Of zinnias and moonflowers
 We could bathe in the nullah of a gulf stream
 Prowl like cats in the night
 Then transform like moths
 In a chrysalis of light
 Chrysalis of light
 Moths call to me
 They call
 They call to me
 They call so deep
 Got to feel it all
 No time for sleep
 No time at all
 When they call
 They call to me
 They call so deep
 Got to feel it all
 No time for sleep
 No time at all
 When they call
 When they call
