my little island versuri

my little island lyrics by NEVE IRE

Verse 1
That little girl with a dream
Told me that she’d never leave
‘Cause she left with four grandparents
Now there’s only one left that I can see
I know my parents really miss me
When I come home, it makes them happy
Me and my sisters with them under one roof
Is all they’ll ever need
And that’s all on me

Pre-Chorus
Rolling fields of evergreen
Took for granted at eighteen
Now nothing out an airplane window ever looked so good to mе

Chorus
Home
Only place that I’m nevеr alone
Suddenly I’m okay, yeah
I’m always smiling on my little island, you know
Maybe it’s time I come home

Verse 2
Aoife’s fallen in love
She knows that he’s the one
Hope he has as much fun growing old with her
As I had growing up
Laoise’s no longer the baby
She’s got so smart and it scares me
One day she’ll get married
And I hope he loves her as much as I do

Pre-Chorus
Rolling fields of evergreen
Took for granted at eighteen
Now nothing out an airplane window ever looked so good to me

Chorus
Home
Only place that I’m never alone
Suddenly I’m okay, yeah
I’m always smiling on my little island, you know
Maybe it’s time I come home

Outro
I look at you there and I could melt
You’re gonna do lovely things singing
You’re a lovely person
And I just say
I’ll come back in twenty years
And if you haven’t made it to the very top and back
You’ll have me to answer for
