lyrics

I wake up early every morning
Just to see the sunrise
A flame never brighter than in your eyes
But ticking hands and grains of sand
Release it from a blue sky
Like an arrow to the knee, the way the time flies

You like to paddle through a hurricane
I like to float and just drift away
But we make it to the shore when the storm is through
A boat that barrels through the waves is tossed a line by one that sways
I can't take it anymore
We gotta hook the loop
To the island in between me and you

We can dream of yesterday
Or of tomorrow
Or of Jackson Hole and blankets of deep snow
Ain't it funny how a beating heart
Just feels like sorrow
When your love has got nowhere to go

You like to paddle through a hurricane
I like to float and just drift away
But we make it to the shore when the storm is through
A boat that barrels through the waves gets tossed a line by one that sways
I can't take it anymore
We gotta hook the loop
To the island in between me and you
There's an island in between me and you
