you can leave the island but you can't leave my love
|
and you can't take back what you gave away
|
you can leave the island but you can't leave my heart
|
'cause this memory remains
|
|
of the moonlit nights
|
when the stars were high
|
we could see Savannah shine across the waves
|
we could dance along the shore
|
and take our time for more
|
and all along I know our hearts will say
|
|
you can leave the island but you can't leave my love
|
and you can't take back what you gave away
|
you can leave the island but you can't leave my heart
|
'cause the memory remains
|
|
and I loved you
|
from the moment that we met I'm thinkin' of you
|
and I never will forget...
|
how the feelin' came a reelin',
|
so easy to be ... so free
|
|
on a moonlit night
|
when the stars are high
|
we can see Savannah shine across the waves
|
now I know you must move on...
|
but I'll never be alone
|
as long as this memory remains
|
|
and I've loved you
|
from the moment that we met I'm thinkin' of you
|
and I never will forget...
|
how the feelin' came a reelin',
|
so easy to be... so free
|
|
you can leave the island but you can't leave my love
|
and you can't take back what you gave away
|
you can leave the island but you can't leave my heart
|
'cause the memory remains...
|
this feelin' rarely ever fades...
|
and how I wish,
|
how I wish, how I wish you'd stay
|
