Karaoké Back to the Island Leon Russell

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 guessin' game just had to end that way

The hardest one to lose of all the games we played

But the time is past for livin' in a dream world

Lyin' to myself can't make that scene

Of wonderin' if you love me or just makin' a fool of me

Well I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island

And watch the sun go down

Hear the sea roll in

But I'll be thinkin' of you and how it might have been

Hear the night birds cry

Watch the sunset die

Well I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island

For all the sunny skies it's rainin' 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

And watch the sun go down

Hear the sea roll in

But I'll be thinkin' of you and how it might have been

Oh hear the night birds cry

Watch the sunset die

Well I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island

And watch the sun go down

Hear the sea roll in

But I'll be thinkin' of you and how it might have been

Hear the night birds cry

Watch the sunset die

Well I hope you understand

I just had to go back to the island

Watch the ships come in

Wonder where they've been

But I'll be thinkin' of you darlin'
