On an Island , Live In Gdansk 2006 "On An Island" Remember that night White steps in the moonlight They walked here too Through empty playground, this ghosts' town Children again, on rusting swings getting higher Sharing a dream, on an Island, it felt right We lay side by side Between the moon and the tide Mapping the stars for a while Let the night surround you We're halfway to the stars Ebb and flow Let it go Feel her warmth beside you Remember that night The warmth and the laughter Candles burned Though the church was deserted At dawn we went down through empty streets to the harbour Dreamers may leave, but they're here ever after Let the night surround you We're halfway to the stars Ebb and flow Let it go Feel her warmth beside you
