Take Me Away To the Island That's Down By the Sea

Take me away to the island that’s down by the sea

Take me away to the island 

That’s down by the sea

Where you and I can 
release our anxieties

Because it would be
the perfect 
weekend get away

Where we can lie peacefully 
in a hammock 
that’s hanging from the trees

But it would also be 
the perfect place to stay

Where we can act like 
children all over again

Because there wouldn’t 
be another soul around
that would be close by

Because we would have 
our own perfect hideaway

Where we could be 
as free 
as we wanted to be

Because we would be 
far away from everybody

Where we could literally 
enjoy
some peace and tranquility
in our perfect little getaway
where we could always cool 
off by jumping into the sea 

Where we could swim 
and we could play
with the sea turtles and the 
dolphins as they casually 
start swimming close by

Wouldn’t it be nice
if we could just get away

Because I cannot think 
of a better place to be

Then being with you 

On the island 

That’s down by the sea
