Out Of The Island lyrics

Out On The Island (4:16)

words & music by Graham Nash



The sky was full of diamonds,

some of them were falling.

The cloud came by and covered up the skyline.  

Voices in the distance, I could swear 

I heard them calling me,

taking me back to you behind

the tree-line.  Out on the

island, it’s such a beautiful island,

with the swaying trees and

the summer breeze, there is 

only one place to be...out

on the island.  Someone saying 

something, as we walk toward

the pier.  The wind came

through and blew away the

moonlight.  No one saying 

nothing.  I pretend I cannot

hear, but I’m hoping it all

comes true before the daylight.

Out on the island, it’s such a beautiful island,

with the swaying trees and

the summer breeze, there is 

only one place to be...out on...out on...

The sky was full of diamonds,

some of them were falling.

The cloud came by and covered up the skyline.  

Voices in the distance, I could swear 

I heard them calling me, (calling me)

taking me back to you behind

the tree-line.  (Wooo!)  Out on the

island, it’s such a beautiful island,

with the swaying trees and

the summer breeze, there is 

only one place to be...out

on the island. And I feel good

I feel good, with the swaying trees

and the summer breeze, there is

only one place to be...
