Manrique's Island Lyrics

Tanned, feeling gold

Wild birds and gypsy girls

Hot skin, gold hair

Heaven's talking in the summer air

Dressing up in shells

Wild desert, alone land

I miss you like hell

Only you would understand

In this faded paradise where greens will grow wide, dry, and thirsty

I see levels of waves in a million different shapes, losing color in the distance

Where you

Where you

Where you

Drive me through the heights

The sky carved in our eyes

The ocean is a liquid diamond

The sun that once was in our back

Is now painted black

As we greet the horizon

Barefoot on the road

Being free is never feeling old

Starving eyes and empty hands

We leave our bags and pack the sand

Sculpting thoughts and days

It's all about the thrill anyway

The dripping from the rocks

Lay the night with its sparkling dots

Your words were dancing in my mind, like the leaves of the palms in this island

Our youth is not aging with time, it is burning red and bright like the fire

Where you

Where you

Where you

Drive me through the heights

The sky carved in our eyes

The ocean is a liquid diamond

The sun that once was in our back

Is now painted black

As we greet the horizon

And we dance until we

Become the island and the island's swing

And we dance until we

Become the island and the island's swing

And we dance until we

Become the island and the island's swing

And we dance

And we dance

Dance through the night

The sky in our eyes

The ocean is a liquid diamond

The sun that once was in our back

Is now painted black

As we greet the horizon
