Islands

The other day I saw somebody who look just like you

She sat across me on the bus, her expression was blue

I thought she might look up at me and maybe recognize

But she kept her head down and got off at the light

I thought about chasing her, my hands on the window we drove past

Imagination running behind her like, "Come back

Now I don't usually do this I wanna see you again

You remind me of a friend I used to know back when times were simpler

And nobody asking me for a favor"

Thеn she would crack a smile and tell mе don't be a stranger

And I would say I'll call you, her number down on a paper

And she would make the sound a pigeon make, then see me later

But instead I rode the line until it finished

All night on that empty bus, just like it was Christmas

I don't miss you, no, I only miss your presence

Another sunny day in paradise without you in it

I've been looking for an Island, Island

Can you come help me find it, find it

Let you be the pilot

Then you let me go

I've been looking for an Island, Island

Can you come help me find it, find it

Let you be the pilot

Then you let me go

I'll just pretend that I'm in paradise

Without you, without you here

I'll try to find a better way of life

Without you, it's not so clear

I followed you into my dreams, you led me here

My feet was on the grass, your hands was in the air

I walk behind you, afraid you might disappear

I close my eyes a second then opened, you wasn't there

Sun shining on my face through the blinds

I'm not used to waking up without you lying by my side

And she can catch my eye but I doubt that she'll understand

I'm lost in the sea with these fishes lookin for land

Been a while since I seen a face like yours

Living in the darkness, you open the door

Some how I feel like I been here before

Said the same things like you're having me perform

Your lips are moving but I couldn't hear a word
