Lucky Mud - The Earth Is an Island lyrics
the earth is an island in a big, black sea A port for all sailors and spices and me Shipwrecked and lonely, we watch helplessly As stars ride the curve of infinity Filling my pockets with pieces of string I bought a mansion just to sit in the swing And rock to-and-fro, wordlessly singing On the arm of an oak, in the bosom of Spring Maybe Delilah thought it was worth it She said, "I just didn't like that long hair." And maybe Icarus thought it was worth it Just seeing the world from up there He said, "Life ain't a round-trip ticket, At best, it's a license to fly I could've instead, made an nice feather bed And in it, just curl up and die" But life ain't a round trip ticket At best, it's a ticket to ride You can see lots of things when you spread your wings And live with your eyes open wide ....... Life ain't a round-trip ticket At best, it's a hell of a ride You may not get as far as touching the stars But they sure look pretty at night The earth is an island in a big, black sea A port for all sailors and spices and me...... |
