Lyrics:

Here him calling far across the years.
Feel that I know you, say voices in the breeze.
Silently I watched you, feel your way.
Oh Little Islands, will you come back...
La La la la la oh! La La la la la oh!
La La la la la oh! La La la la la la!

Here him calling far across the years
Calling to you through these myriad dreams.
Whispering witnesses, pierce the night.
Oh Little Islands, will you come back.
La La la la la oh! La La la la la oh!
La La la la la oh! La La la la la la!

Free as the river flows
Leading me on into the arms of heaven knows
Love feel that I know you.
Burning the dark aching past into futures light.
Breaking the ties of all limitation.

Yes it's Love that I feel that's inside of me.
And it's Love that I give to you freely.
And it's joy that I feel for you.
La La la la la oh! La La la la la oh!
La La la la la oh! La La la la la la!

Proudly as we go on.
Livin' day by day then wondering where that day has gone.
Search for some meaning.
Governments lie while children die and we're watching that old TV.
No mocking face can see what's really inside of you.
Yes I care what can happen to me and you.
I'm a fool but it's love that can set us free.
And it's joy that I feel for you.

Silently he watches you. Oh Little Islands when will you learn.
La La la la la oh! La La la la la oh!
La La la la la oh! La La la la la la!
