Georges Island.


Georges Island.

 

Light breaks where no sun shines, at the end of the day where the sea rumbles, I lay nude and carefree in his arms, the waters of the heart
Push in their tides slashes over us like a blanket, It washes cares and worries away, I could live forever
near water so peaceful and eternal as the sun, with the love we share.

There's light ahead Angels blessing our path. Stuck on Georges Island for days all skin and bones,
living on pecans and milky way bars, But still have the strength to make love until tomorrows sun. A candle in the thighs warms youth

and seed and burns the seeds of age.Where no seed stirs, The fruit of man unwrinkles in the stars, Bright as a fig; we lived here forever it
seems living off banana and coconuts, pecans and milky way bars. This where our life ends.

Dawn breaks behind the eyes, from poles of skull and toe the windy blood Slides like a sea.
Georges Island is where we will live our eternity in each other's arms with a smile, a drop of tears. There are no worries, no fear. Georges Island has monkies in trees now, and they're all staring at me, My sweetheart said it's just an illusion he saw them yesterday. Oh well, what the hell,  birds of a feather we flop together.
