Radio Skies - Island Eyes Lyrics

In the dark of winter
It's hard to remember
The summer breeze on my skin
So every night
I light a wood stove fire
And toss some pictures in
But I keep one of you and me
Up on the wall where I can see
Your eyes
Now I wonder where you've been
Where you are and what I've missed
All for my pride

Island eyes island eyes
As the sun sets down
With no else around
I think of you

Out there alone on my island
What did I prove
I gave it all away
Just to come back to you
You said if I was ever coming home
You'd leave a light on
How was I to know
You were already gone

As I write my story down
I wonder who is it for
It so late in the night
I'm seeing shadows under the door
The wells gone dry
No tears in my eyes
The trade winds they stopped blowing
I sing this song for you
Heroes and Villains

Island eyes island eyes
As the sun sets down
With no else around
I think of you

Out there alone on my island
What did I prove
I gave it all away
Just to come back to you

You said if I was ever coming home
You'd leave a light on
How was I to know
You were already gone

You said if I was ever coming home
You'd leave a light on

How was I to know
How was I too late
You were already gone
