Lyrics

I’m heading to the Island

Time to catch a flight 

Leaving in the morning 

Be there by sunlight (x2)

I don’t know if I can do, All the things I said to you,

I’ll be eating coconut 

I’m gonna kick it in the trees, Can you feel the ocean breeze?

Sleeping in the tiki hut 

Gonna pick out a lei, Chill by the bay 

And cook dinner on an open flame 

We’re gonna look at the views, Drink pineapple juice, 

And just listen to the falling rain

I’m heading to the Island

Time to catch a flight 

Leaving in the morning 

Be there by sunlight (x2)

We need to break bread, We need to spend time 

We need to talk together without losing our minds 

We might not agree, But at least we can see 

That we can all give more, we can all try 

We can’t always see eye-to-eye

And that’s just okay, so here’s what I’ll say… 

If I were the King of the World, I know the first thing that I’d do 

I’d gather up everyone to see their point of view 

We might understand, let’s have a feast, everyone’s arounds got the mark of the beast 

Now it’s time to do right, start living your life 

Good things come from promises, that remain kept

Show me what’s under the rug, where things have been swept 

We may have our differences, but we don’t have to dwell 

We also have secrets, that we don’t need to tell… like 

If I were the King of the World, I know the first thing that I’d do 

I’d gather up everyone to see their point of view 

We might understand, let’s have a feast, everyone’s arounds got the mark of the beast 

Now it’s time to do right, start living your life  

Can you pass me a block of cheese

The one you cut so nicely for me (for me)

You hurry up, but instead 

You throw it right in the riverbed 

As I stand in the kitchen, with no lights on 

You ask me a series of questions (of questions)

Like “are we good” “how are you” and “can I pet that dog”?

And I say: Hey Google, turn some string lights on cause 

I can’t see, I can’t see, the only light is on a houseplant 

I can’t see, I can’t see, the only light is on a houseplant 

Can I ask you a question please?

It would mean so much to me (to me)

You hurry up, nod your head 

Then go right back to bed 

As I stand in the kitchen, with no lights on 

You ask me a series of questions (of questions)

Like “are we good” “how are you” and “can I pet that dog”?

And I say: Hey Google, turn some string lights on cause 

I can’t see, I can’t see, the only light is on a houseplant 

I can’t see, I can’t see, the only light is on a houseplant 

And there’s boobytraps inside the bathroom, and I don’t know what to do 

The water is purple, and I can’t see, but I know 656 will be there for you and me

I’ve been waiting for seconds, and minutes, and hours 

‘Til I’m bringing candy and your favorite flowers, to your door 

And its been days, or months, no weeks

Since we’ve shared secrets or kissed cheeks, on your floor 

And it’s alright, when you tell you

If we’re not meant to be- I just need to know 

You’ve been changing so much it’s unpleasant 

Do you still have feelings for me and my presence, anymore?

Cause babe, something is different

And I think it’s me you’ve not been missing, you want more 

And it’s alright, when you tell you

If we’re not meant to be

I said it’s alright, it still hurts me 

But one day, Ill look back to see 

That I just need to go 

Not a cloud in the sky today, so I’ll be flying 

Far from here, because girl we are dying 

The Good Lord knows that I’ve been trying 

To see the good things on the horizon 

Got a lot to live for, so let’s get to living 

I’m just thankful to be alive 

Been through good times, been through bad times, I’ve been through it all, 

I’m just grateful, that I survived the fall 

I now hear the birds when they’re singing 

Sweet melodies to us they are bringing 

And although I’ve cried, I still have pride, knowing that I try

To just enjoy the ride 

Not a cloud in the sky today, so I’ll be flying 

Not a cloud in the sky today, so I’ll be flying, flying, away

Waking up, I’m shaking, Throwing up- confused 

Gotta cover up the tracks , Of the cans that I abused

Said I’d just have 1 drink, By 1 I meant a case

Can you tell from my bloodshot eyes, And a bloated face

Why am I so lonely , When people are around

Please send some help our I’ll be 6 feet underground 

And why am I so hopeless, every second feels the same 

Can’t stand my reflection, nothing but shame 

I can’t look at myself, I’m hardly breathing, And if I don’t get out, she’ll soon be leaving 

I can’t do it myself, your help I’m needing, can you save me from mistakes that I keep repeating 

(that I keep repeating)

Somethings gotta change, somethings gotta give, I think it’s time to grow, I know it’s time to live

Cause there’s still more to life, than what your seeing, you need a clear head, search for the meaning

Just remember that growth is ever changing, I’m writing down all my goals then rearranging 

Cause the top of the list, shouldn’t be drinking, but if I say its you, we know it’s wishful thinking 

I can’t look at myself, I’m hardly breathing, And if I don’t get out, she’ll soon be leaving 

I can’t do it myself, your help I’m needing, can you save me from mistakes that I keep repeating 

(that I keep repeating)

The love I have for you is sweet

Cause babe you swept me off of my feet 

And then you lift me up, just to lift me up again 

I wish I could have some words to say,

But babe you take my breath away

Cause when I see you smile, you know I’m living for today 

And if I could write you a love song a day 

If I could take your pain away 

If I could make sure this love stays 

I would do it happily (happily)

People may talk, but talk is cheap 

So please just go back to sleep 

I will make sure, I will make sure you’re safe and sound 

And if you can’t sleep just let me know 

Cause I’m here just so you know

I will make sure, I will make sure to be around 

And if I could write you a love song a day 

If I could take your pain away 

If I could make sure this love stays 

I would do it happily (happily)

You got me falling, you got me falling hard for you 

I can’t stop falling, can’t stop falling hard for you 

No more waking up alone, yeah, we’re always on the phone, every morning starts the perfect way 

And I know that you’ve been busy, all this falling makes me dizzy, so I need to find some words to say

But when you come around, my lips don’t make a sound cause they’re, lip locked with you 

So if I’m lacking poise, or if I’m chilling with the boys, you can pull the parachute

You got me falling, you got me falling hard for you, you’re my gravity 

I can’t stop falling, can’t stop falling hard for you, love your energy 

It’s like the changing of the seasons, girl you’re giving me new reasons, to get myself back in shape 

You said you think I’m funny, but you know I don’t have money, if you’re wine then I must be a grape

But now that we’re together, I feel lighter than a feather, cause we’re straight head over heels 

So if you see it raining, I won’t forget the training, I’m falling, but I like how it feels 

You got me falling, you got me falling hard for you, you’re my gravity 

I can’t stop falling, can’t stop falling hard for you, love your energy

Picture yourself in a movie,

yeah you’re the star

And if you wanna just stop moving,

you won’t get too far 

Your dreams will never stop you must chase them

And nothing that you do can erase them 

You gotta keep moving on, 

I know you’ll just keep being strong, yeah 

Good things come, to those who wait

So when you’re at the top, you’ll appreciate 

All the times when you just got by,

all the hours worked overtime 

And life is a grind, it’s a struggle 

Are you backstage or just a double?

Cause in this film you only get one take, 

So there’s a lot at stake 

Picture yourself in a movie, yeah you’re the star 

And when you wanna just start movie, I know you’ll go so far 

Picture yourself in a movie (x2)

I’ve been trying to do right

Always end up in the wrong

I wasn’t trying to fight 

Wanted us to get along, now baby

If you’re gonna move on, you better do so quick 

Cause right now, my stomach is sick 

I was positive, you were pessimistic

The things I did for you, yeah you certainly missed it

You missed it, now you’re all alone 

So I moved on

I moved on like you baby 

I wrote this song

Cause I think you’re crazy 

If you’re gonna move you, you better do so fast

I didn’t think this could last 

But I was positive, you were pessimistic

The things I did for you, yeah you certainly missed it

You missed it, now you’re all alone
