Island Lady Lyrics

"Island Lady"By Tom RappIsland ladyWon't you stayI will bring youBaskets of flowersEvery dayUntil the pain is goneIsland lady,How long has it been?Over a year.Won't you let meOpen up your door?Island ladyHear my wordsAll the battlesAre somebody else'sFor a whileWon't you please come down?On a cornerA beggar with his cupSays he has visionsAnd God appears before himOnly in the form of breadWon't you let meOpen up your door?Island ladyWhen you smileAll the battlesCan wait 'till tomorrowFor a whileCan we please touch smilesTouch each other's smiles?In the parkA girl in an army shirtWith long hairAnd white smilesSays between visionsThat God is the grassWon't you let meOpen up your door?Island ladyHere's my bedCan I lieBeside and around you'Till you smileUntil the pain is gone?Island ladyGod appears oftenAnd if he were liesI'd promise you beautiful liesYou could live inWon't you let meOpen up your door?Island ladyWon't you stayI will bring youBaskets of flowersIn my wayUntil the pain is gone
