Blue Virgin Isles

Blue Virgin Isles

Leavin' the Blue Virgin Isles

You had a heart like a childs

Rain keeps on falling

But when we were young

We chased the clouds from the sun

Darling, we fell to the ground

Just like the leaves when they're brown

Rain keeps on falling

Like tears from my eyes

Leavin' the Blue Virgin Isles

Not so long ago

Your life was blooming

You had time enough to grow

Used to watch you from my window when you passed

On the sunburned grass

You and I would know

We ran in meadows

While the days were going slow

Rolled our trousers when we waded down the creek

And jumped the stones on naked feet

Leavin' the Blue Virgin Isles

You had a heart like a childs

Rain keeps on falling

But when we were young

We chased the clouds from the sun

Darling, we fell to the ground

Fell just like leaves when they're brown

Still I remember

Your face with a smile

Leavin' the Blue Virgin Isles

Walked along the beach

Where kites were flying out of everybody's reach

We were children, building castles in the sand

With our freezing hands

Here I stand alone

I'm like the blind man

Tapping roads that lead him home

I have to make it to the other side of life

And find my way with open eyes

Leavin' the Blue Virgin Isles

You had a heart like a childs

Rain keeps on falling

But when we were young

We chased the clouds from the sun

Darling, we fell to the ground

Fell just like leaves when they're brown

Still i remember

Our days with a smile

Leavin' the Blue Virgin Isles
