Islands Lyrics - John Denver

This song appears on four albums, and was first released on the Seasons of the Heart Album, and has also been released on the Earth Songs, The John Denver Collection - Sunshine On My Shoulder and The Very Best of John Denver (Single CD) Albums. 

Islands call out to me 

Like the highlands that I always see 

In my dreams of home 

I am never alone when I am there 

Islands like so many dreams 

Are like canyons but off the main stream 

And there's no one there 

The dreamer is always alone

And the mighty blue ocean 

Keeps rolling on every shore 

Like the spirit that binds us together 

We are so much more than islands 

Islands belong to the sea 

Like the dark sands of my memory 

When the morning comes 

They are stepping stones to the sun 

Photos 

And the mighty blue ocean 

Keeps rolling on every shore 

Like the spirit that binds us together 

We are so much more than islands
