[Verse 1]
Earth, stream and tree, encircled by sea
Waves sweep the sand from my island
My sunsets fade, field and glade
Wait only for rain, grain after grain
Love erodes my high weathered walls
Which fend off the tide
Cradle the wind to my island
[Verse 2]
Gaunt granite climbs where gulls wheel and glide
Mournfully cry o'er my island
My dawn bride's veil damp and pale
Dissolves in the sun, love's web is spun
Cats prowl, mice run
Wreathe snatch-hand briars where owls know my eyes
Violet skies touch my island, touch me
[Chorus]
Beneath the wind turned wave
Infinite peace
Islands join hands
'Neathe heaven's sea
[Instrumental]
