Island 03:26
first came the rain it washed my sins away then came the breeze he had me begging please then came the earth he said the devil's got my soul now come the fire that will swallow me whole i walked off the land walked right off the shore i swam to an island where i built my home and when she passed by she sensed something was wrong she thought i had an inkling of what path we should be on and though i might say that i came a long way through heaven and through hell please and thanks i did say
