It's always a [bad word] 
To let somebody go 
It's a natural desire 
To own your lover, I know 
And you can [bad word] a man down 
Until he takes to drinking 
He'll give you all of his money 
You still won't know what he's thinking 

Take me to the fantastic place 
Keep the rest of my life away 
Take me to the fantastic place 
Keep the rest of my life away 

Take me to the island 
I'll watch the rain over your shoulder 
The streetlights in the water 
The moment outside of real life 

I never could dream while I was sleeping 
Put your arms around my soul 
And take it dancing.. 

Take me to the fantastic place 
Keep the rest of my life away 
Take me to the fantastic place 
Keep the rest of my life away 

Take me to the island 
I'll watch the rain over your shoulder 
The streetlights on the wet stone 
The moment outside of real life 

Say you understand me 
And I will leave [bad word] 
Forgive me if I stare 
But I can see the island behind your tired, troubled eyes 

Take me to the island 
I'll tell you all I never told you 
The boy I never showed you 
More than I gave in my life 
Take me by the hand 
You'll either kill me or you'll save me 
Take me to the island 
Show me what might be real life
