Island Feeling - Intellectual

[Chorus]

How many tear drops must I cry?

'Fore I let you pass on by

'Cause this island feelin', no, no island feelin'

I just want it to pass on by

We'll lose the ground, but we're bound

Only teardrops can be found

This island sinkin', we're both still drinkin'

But when the mornin' comes, I know you'll be gone

I'm packin' my bags, I'm movin' on and on

'Cause the fire's still burnin', embers on ashes

Now take it on back, take it on back

How many tear drops must I cry?

'Fore I let you pass on by

'Cause this island feelin', no, no island feelin'

I just want it to pass on by, go on

When the night closes and you're left with no one

Me call it island feelin', 'cause me left all alone

Now me on the pavement, 'cause me got no money

Only which me lovin' is what me offerin'

'Cause you want to call, you know got to be leavin'

Now, baby girl, like quicksand, girl, you got me, got me sinkin' all alone

We'll lose the ground, but we're bound

Only teardrops can be found

This island sinkin', we're both still drinkin'

But when the mornin' comes, I know you'll be gone

I'm packin' my bags, I'm movin' on and on

'Cause the fire's still burnin', embers on ashes

Now take it on back, take it on back

How many tear drops must I cry?

'Fore I let you pass on by

'Cause this island feelin', no, no island feelin'

I just want it to pass on by, go on

Go on
