There's an island near by made for just you and I
And it's called the Island of Love
It's always fair weather with lovers together
The sky is so blue up above
There's no care or sorrow, think not of tomorrow
Just live in the present with me
So come take the trip on fancy's frail ship
And just see how happy we'll be
The Island of Love's in the Ocean of Bliss
You're transported there by means of a kiss
The trip is easy, come take it sweetheart
There's nothing to fear but sly Cupid's dart
For that little elf always reigns there supreme
But he will not wake us from our happy dream
And we'll bill and we'll coo like two turtle doves
When we're on the Island of Love
Oft' times in a dream with you it would seem
Away from the world and its care
Aplace we had found where never a sound
Of sorrow could reach us out there
On the Island of Love with bright skies above
Where everything's calm and serene
Just come, dear, with me, for then you will see
This island where you'll be my queen
The Island of Love's in the Ocean of Bliss
You're transported there by means of a kiss
The trip is easy, come take it sweetheart
There's nothing to fear but sly Cupid's dart
For that little elf always reigns there supreme
But he will not wake us from our happy dream
And we'll bill and we'll coo like two turtle doves
When we're on the Island of Love
Mahalo to Larry W. Jones for these lyrics and the sheet music image.
