Drawn by the music of the sea
I'm looking out at eternity
I'm trying to pinpoint the moment as well as I can
When addition stopped and subtraction began
When the dark has lifted and the fog clears
I'm leaving the island from the Valley Of Tears
Leaving the island from the Valley Of Tears
Not enough wood to hang me
Not enough earth to bury me
My home has become a battleground
I’ve come too far to turn around
I don’t think I’ll take any souvenirs
I’m leaving the island from the Valley Of Tears
Leaving the island from the Valley Of Tears
Let me live in the threads of her coat
With her long fingers around my throat
Our blood in the water of Gregory's Sound
The sons and daughters of sacred ground
There was dancing on the rocks or down by the pier
I'm leaving the island from the Valley Of Tears
Leaving the island from the Valley Of Tears
