The Island - The Hit Co. (热歌公司)[00:00:00]

They say the skies of Lebanon are burning,[00:00:21]

Those mighty Cedars bleeding in the heat,[00:00:26]

They're showing pictures on the Television,[00:00:31]

Women and children dying in the street,[00:00:36]

And we're still at it in our own place,[00:00:43]

Still trying to reach the future through the past,[00:00:47]

Still trying to carve tomorrow from a tombstone...[00:00:52]

But hey ! Don't listen to me ![00:00:59]

This wasn't meant to be no sad song,[00:01:01]

We've heard too much of that before,[00:01:06]

Right now I only want to be here with you,[00:01:12]

Till the morning dew comes fall[00:01:16]

Ing,[00:01:19]

I want to take you to the Island,[00:01:22]

And trace your footprints in the sand,[00:01:27]

And in the evening when the sun goes down,[00:01:32]

We'll make love to the sound of the ocean.[00:01:37]

They're raising banners over by the markets,[00:01:49]

Whitewashing slogans on the shipyard walls,[00:01:55]

Witchdoctors praying for a mighty showdown,[00:02:00]

No way our holy flag is gonna fall,[00:02:05]

Up here we sacrifice our children,[00:02:12]

To feed the worn out dreams of yesterday,[00:02:16]

And teach them dying will lead us into glory...[00:02:21]

But hey ! Don't listen to me ![00:02:27]

This wasn't meant to be no sad song,[00:02:30]

We've heard too much of that before,[00:02:35]

Right now I only want to be here with you,[00:02:40]

Till the morning dew comes falling[00:02:45]

I want to take you to the Island,[00:02:51]

And trace your footprints in the sand,[00:02:56]

And in the evening when the sun goes down,[00:03:01]

We'll make love to the sound of the ocean.[00:03:06]

Now I know us plain folks don't see all the story,[00:03:29]

And I know this peace and love's just copping out,[00:03:34]

And I guess these young boys dying in the ditches,[00:03:39]

Is just what being free is all about,[00:03:44]

And how this twisted wreckage down on main street,[00:03:51]

Will bring us all together in the end,[00:03:55]

And we'll go marching down the road[00:04:00]

To freedom ... freedom ...[00:04:03]
