Zen Island

I remember it like yesterday
From in the back of my mind
I was awakened from a dream
And given a sign
Sailed out following the stars
‘Til I was all but lost
But when I came ashore, knew I had to stay
No matter the cost

Saw the streams flowing
By the light of the moon
I saw the truth in my reflection
In a blue lagoon

I’ll get back to the island
If I can find my way
My worries and my fears
The pain and the tears
Drift away
Gotta get back to the island
Just to know it’s real
Out past the horizon
Skies every shade of the color wheel

Sunrise that morning
I felt an ocean breeze
And the sound of the rain drops
Put my mind at ease
Bathed in a waterfall
Ate fruit from the trees
Climbed to the top of the mountain
So that I could see

A tidal wave coming
I knew my time was through
I knew I’d find my way back eventually to make a dream come true

I’ll get back to the island
If I can find my way
My worries and my fears
The pain and the tears
Drift away
Gotta get back to the island
Just to know it’s real
Out past the horizon
Skies every shade of the color wheel

I’ll get back to the island
If I can find my way
My worries and my fears
The pain and the tears
Drift away
Gotta get back to the island
Just to know it’s real
Out past the horizon
Skies every shade of the color wheel
I’ll get back to the island
If I can find my way
My worries and my fears
The pain and the tears
Drift away
Gotta get back to the island
Just to know it’s real
Out past the horizon
Skies every shade of the color wheel
