Back To The Island Lyrics - Will O'the Wisp - Leon Russell

Now the day is gone and I sit alone and think of you, girl 

What can I do without you in my life? 

I guess that our guessing game just had to end that way 

The hardest one to lose of all the games we played 

But the time is past for living in a dream world 

Lying to myself can't make that scene 

Of wondering if you love me or just making a fool of me 

Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island 

Chorus: 

And watch the sun go down (sit and watch the sun go down) 

Hear the sea roll in (listen to the sea roll in) 

But I'll be thinking of you (yes, and I'll be thinking of you) 

And how it might have been (thinking how it might have been) 

Hear the night birds cry (listen to the night birds cry) 

Watch the sunset die (sit and watch the sunset die) 

Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island

But it had to end this way with all the games we played 

Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island
