I've been staring out the window all day I keep seeing your ship sail away I just read your letter last night Now you're so far out of sight I held a treasure in my hand I lost it like a shell in the sand You're out there in deep blue My heart's there with you
There is an island Two lovers aim for Sailin' together To reach that shore You only get so many chances You can't afford to miss the boat Or your heart will go sinkin' 'Cause love don't float
I'll be waitin' til you throw me a line Honey I'll know what to do this time I'm never gonna give up hope I wait for the boat
There is an island Two lovers aim for Sailin' together To reach that shore You only get so many chances You can't afford to miss the boat Or your heart will go sinkin' 'Cause love don't float
Sinkin' and sinkin' and sinkin' and sinkin' Love don't float
