Islands on the Coast Lyrics

Here's a copy
The rest that you know
And put the kind words to bed

For man don't say why
Or even know how
It's only awful as
The hell that you know

When islands want to coast
Islands want to coast
They'll know how
Yeah, they'll know how

And only hours before
The house had burned down
He shut the other door

But if I don't see now
Or even know why
It's only awful
As the hell that you know

When islands want to coast
Islands want to coast
They'll know how
Yeah, they'll know how

Home
Home
Home
Home

He was riding in
The next thing you know
Let's take the other door

Now if I don't think right
Or even know how
It's only awful
As the hell that you know

When islands want to coast
Islands want to coast
They'll know how
Yeah, they'll know how
