the wind kisses my hair
it feels so good to be bare
I melt into the sand
and let the island take me by hand
the sun is burning to my bones
open up, let it in, feel it flow
just like a dream, just let it be
no concept of time
yes, I feel alive
let's take a long walk on the shore
wait for the tide to hide and get low
we can watch the sun go down
from the middle of the ocean
and when I looked around
it was like a dream
just let it be
no concept of time
yes, I feel alive
