Girl On An Island

There once was an island
further than any boat had reached
and she sat there in silence
alone but at ease
a spell was upon her
her body could never leave
but her mind would travel multitudes
you and I could not conceive
when the night sky's your only friend
when you're tired of playing pretend
when the ground under your feet
seems like no more than a dream
and you're in over your head
and your instincts are not fed
well, you're not free
you don't feel free
there's no time to be
on that island with me
far away from the city
from the litter and poverty
from the fast paced monotony.
