[00:00.00]Island Girl -Altan
[00:09.741]With a wave of her hand and her sparkling eye
[00:15.719]My island girl bid me good bye
[00:22.82]For another dream in another time
[00:27.786]For another life under another sky
[00:33.645]But don't just cut off your heart keep it open and sure
[00:39.738]Keep it free from hurt and keep an open door
[00:45.716]And let the spirit of love that united our soul
[00:51.737]Be a gentle dove and guide you to your goal
[00:57.733]And I'll go to that stream and I'll sing my own prayer
[01:03.832]That my island girl shall be safe everywhere
[01:18.917]Sing away while you can and before very long
[01:24.846]The coming tide brings the chosen one
[01:30.777]And there is a hope and there is a peace
[01:36.767]In that ancient land where my angel sleeps
[01:42.657]And when your river runs high let it flow let it flow away
[01:48.962]It's your time with life to let your garden grow
[01:54.454]And when your burden gets rough let it go let it go
[02:00.814]Let your strength return on every breeze that blows
[02:06.673]Through that ancient land through eternity
[02:12.828]Oh my island girl remember me
[02:27.933]For your life has its course and you never can say
[02:33.805]Who you'll meet and marry along your way
[02:39.639]But be sure from the start that the cities behind
[02:45.709]Love the land's living heart and breath eternal time
[02:51.470]And when your river runs dry and your halo is torn
[02:57.290]Drink the living stream in the calm of the dawn
[03:03.656]And may you travel in peace and may your children be blessed
[03:09.625]And your mind released and your soul caressed
[03:15.891]In that faraway land where my spirit flies
[03:21.694]To my island girl under those ancient skies
[03:36.644]And with a wave of her hand and her sparkling eye
[03:42.568]My island girl bid me good bye
[03:48.979]For another dream in another time
[03:54.621]For another life under another sky v
