Island Boy

Kevin Botha, John Leyden, Alan Lazar, Banza Kgasoane

[Verse 1]
Oh, island boy
I'm not your toy
I'm not your object of desire
Has gone away
Now every day I cry for you

Oh, island boy
It's not my choice
That you are leaving me this way
But I can only hope the summer skies
Will bring you back to stay

(Ah-oo)
(Yeah)
(Ah-oo)

[Pre-Chorus]
Just when I thought
It was safe to dream
I saw you leaving me
Forever it seemed

Just when I thought
It was safe to dream
(I saw) you sail away
(Sail away)
On blue island streams

[Chorus]
(Whoa oh)
(My island boy)
(Whoa oh)
(My island boy)

[Verse 2]
Oh, island boy
There is no joy
There is no reason to pretend
You will return
So I must learn to face the pain

Oh, island boy
I see you toy
With my affection and my pride
But now you're gone
I know that I can find
A paradise that's mine

(Ah-oo)
(Yeah)

(Ah-oo)

[Pre-Chorus]
Just when I thought
It was safe to dream
I saw you leaving me
(Leaving me)
Forever it seemed

Just when I thought
(Yeah)
(Yeah)
It was safe to dream
(Yeah)
(I saw) you sail away
(Sail away)
On blue island streams

[Chorus]
(Whoa oh)
(My island boy)
(Whoa oh)
Ooh-oh
(My island boy)

(Whoa)
(Whoa oh)
(Well!)
Yeah

(Whoa oh)
On blue island streams
Ow!

[Bridge]

[Coda]
Ah-oo
(Whoa oh)
Woo!
(My island boy)

Ah-oo
Yeah

Ah-oo
(Yeah)
Ow!
(My island boy)

Ah-oo
(Yeah)
Woo!

Ah-oo
(Whoa oh)
Woo!
(My island boy)

(Yeah)
Ah!

(Whoa oh)
Woo!
(My island boy)

Ah!

(Whoa oh)
Woo!
(My island boy)

(Whoa oh)
Whoa!

Ah-oo
Oh!
(My island boy)

Bye, bye

(Whoa oh)
Ah-oo
