The Island - Richard Shindell[00:00:00]

Written by：Richard Shindell[00:00:01]

Island life does have it's charms[00:00:11]

The constant sun the steady breeze[00:00:17]

Nothing ever happens here[00:00:23]

Few are those who do not fall[00:00:27]

Beneath the spell[00:00:29]

It's language is an orphan branch[00:00:34]

But one that I can understand[00:00:40]

It's cadence is familiar[00:00:47]

It shares the old declension from the continent[00:00:49]

I came here with a package deal[00:00:57]

Everything all prearranged[00:01:01]

Three nights at the grand hotel[00:01:04]

All the rooms[00:01:08]

Have ocean views[00:01:10]

By latitude and longitude[00:01:21]

Mariners will not arrive[00:01:27]

It's coordinates are plotted by[00:01:33]

It's relative position[00:01:36]

To the rising sea[00:01:38]

The lucky few who call it home[00:01:45]

Are prosperous and confident[00:01:50]

They manifest a certainty[00:01:56]

That come what may things will not be otherwise[00:01:59]

I came here with a package deal[00:02:07]

Everything all prearranged[00:02:11]

Three nights at the grand hotel[00:02:14]

Where all the rooms have ocean views[00:02:18]

Time is on the oceans side[00:02:54]

The beaches shift the cliffs erode[00:03:00]

Though the engineers do what they can[00:03:05]

Everyday another house just slides away[00:03:09]

I came here with a package deal[00:03:16]

Everything all prearranged[00:03:21]

Three nights at the grand hotel[00:03:23]

Where all the rooms have ocean views[00:03:27]

All the rooms[00:03:39]

Have ocean views[00:03:42]
