Cat Power Islands Lyrics

Islands Lyrics

I want to rule the islands

And I want to rule the sea

But if you're not coming back

I will sleep eternally



And I want no heavy diamonds

And pearls crush my teeth

I just want my sailor

To sail back to me



Captain has a treasure

He says I hold the key

But old mangroves

And sweet winds blow songs

Of you and me



I want to rule the islands

And I want to rule the sea

But if you're not coming back

I will sleep eternally
