We Are Islands Lyrics - Singles - Foxes

[Verse 1] 

I never knew fire ever burned so long 

I've learned a lot from you, but lessons still grow old 

I've lost the only light that ever guides me home 

When it gets so cold 

[Pre-Chorus] 

We are like islands, lost in the ocean 

Caught in the silence, without emotion 

We are like islands, nothing surrounds me 

I'm holding on now, and I won't let go

[Chorus] 

We close our eyes and dance 

Burn to the strength of our heartbeat 

So let's burn it out, let's burn it out 

Let's burn it to the ground 

We close our eyes and dance 

Burn to the strength of our heartbeat 

So let's burn it out, let's burn it out 

Let's burn it to the ground 

[Verse 2] 

I never thought that we could ever go this far 

You are the only one that's ever shared my love 

We let the good thing go and then we lost our way 

When it gets so cold

[Pre-Chorus] 

We are like islands, lost in the ocean 

Caught in the silence, without emotion 

We are like islands, nothing surrounds me 

I'm holding on now, and I won't let go 

[Chorus] 

We close our eyes and dance 

Burn to the strength of our heartbeat 

So let's burn it out, let's burn it out 

Let's burn it to the ground 

We close our eyes and dance 

Burn to the strength of our heartbeat 

So let's burn it out, let's burn it out 

Let's burn it to the ground 

[Bridge] 

We are, we are, we are 

We are like islands 

We are, we are, we are 

We are like islands 

One night is all we have 

And I wanna waste it all on you 

So let's burn it out, let's burn it out 

Let's burn it to the ground 

[Chorus] 

We close our eyes and dance 

Burn to the strength of our heartbeat 

So let's burn it out, let's burn it out 

Let's burn it to the ground 

We close our eyes and dance 

Burn to the strength of our heartbeat 

So let's burn it out, let's burn it out 

Let's burn it to the ground
