With the sand in your shoes You said falling in love is easy It's easy to do We fell in love With the windows rolled down Chasing the sunset Through another empty town Your hair was a mess When you would dance on the coast Your silhouette Like some heavenly ghost When you're only eighteen And you have nothing to lose And you're living a dream
So it's goodbye to my lady of the islands. On Remembrance Day the bands all played, The bells pealed through the park. And you lay there by the "Do Not" signs, And shamed them with your spark. Now winter moans in old men's bones. As the day falls into dark. And it's goodbye to my lady of the islands.
