Islands (acoustic Version) Lyrics - Reese Lansangan

Don't you come back here asking me why 

I've spent nights bleeding myself dry 

I'm fighting beasts 

I'm climbing trees and towers 

I'm whole, alive, breathing 

That's what matters 

I want to hold you 

But my body's moving away, hmmm 

Gotta let you go 

Oh 

But when I do my mind just keeps on 

finding a way to you again 

Self-control won't help me so 

don't come running back 

Back... 

Back 

If you don't mean to stay 

Just stay away, don't come back 

Back... 

Back

Empty hands 

Knees to the ground 

Better watch me pray 

That I won't give 

my honesty away 

'Cause when I say "be gone" 

My stubborn tongue is faking 

My heart won't echo sounds 

my mouth is making 

And I want to hold you 

But my body's moving away, hmmm 

Gotta let you go 

Oh 

But when I do my mind just keeps on 

finding a way to you again 

Self-control won't help me so 

don't come running back 

Back... 

Back 

If you don't mean to stay 

Just stay away, don't come back 

Back... 

Back...

Saying goodbye to the islands 

that we named 

Oh the ocean is calling my name 

Bye to the earth 

that we have claimed 

Oh the ocean is calling my name 

Bye to the islands 

that we named 

Oh the ocean is calling my name 

Bye to the earth 

that we have claimed 

Oh the ocean is calling my name 

Bye to the islands 

that we named 

Oh the ocean is calling my name 

Bye to the earth 

that we have claimed 

Oh the ocean is calling my name 

Bye to the islands 

that we named 

Oh the ocean is calling my name 

Bye to the earth 

that we have claimed 

Oh the ocean is calling my name 

Don't you come back 

here asking me why 

I'm whole, alive, breathing 

That's what matters 

I've spent nights 

bleeding myself dry 

I'm whole, alive, breathing 

That's what matters 

I'm fighting beasts 

I'm climbing trees and towers 

I'm whole, alive, breathing 

That's what matters 

I'm fighting beasts 

I'm climbing trees and towers 

Bye to the earth 

that we have claimed 

Oh the ocean is calling...
