Girl Named Tom Barrier Island Lyrics

Verse 1:
It took 'til we heard time ticking
Until we turned intentional about
Togetherness
There's no such thing as too late
We had days to appreciate but I wish
We had more time

Chorus:
I don't know why I miss you
It feels like I just met you
Before you left I thought that you should know
I'm torn up that you're leaving
It'd be good to hear you saying
That you'll remember me from Mykonos

Verse 2:
Like acquaintances we brushed shoulders for a year
Like wishful thinkers, circled for one more
And finally like lovers
We walked and talked like lovers for a week
I wish it were more

Chorus:
And I wonder why I miss you
I mean I've never even kissed you
Just before you left I called to tell you so
I'm sad that you're leaving
I'll be glad to hear you saying
That you remember me from Mykonos
Bada, bada, bada bada ba, badadada
Bada, bada, bada bada ba

Verse 3:
For years our hands washed dishes in the sink
Wishin' I could wipe that soap off of your cheek
Fingers rollin' momos through university
Until last night they pulled you close
Together finally

Chorus:
And I know now why I miss you
I'm sure it's 'cause I love you
Just before you left I called to tell you so I'm sorry that you're leaving
But it's good to hear you saying
That you'll love me back to here from Mykonos

Bridge:
Two years, four hands
Holdin' to a chance
One week, two minds, runnin' out of time
Two years, four hands
Holdin' to a chance
One week, two minds, runnin' out of time
Chorus:
And I know now why I miss you
(Two years, four hands)
I'm sure it's cause I love you
(Holdin' to a chance)
Just before you left I thought that you should know
(One week, two minds, runnin' out of time)
While I'm sorry that you're leaving
(Two years, four hands)
It's so good to hear you saying
(Holdin' to a chance)
That you'll love me back to here from Mykonos
(One week, two minds, runnin' out of time)

And I know now why I miss you
(Two years, four hands)
I'm sure it's cause I love you
(Holdin' to a chance)
Just before you left I thought that you should know
(One week, two minds, runnin' out of time)
While I'm sorry that you're leaving
(Two years, four hands)
It'd be good to hear you saying
(Holdin' to a chance)
That you'll love me back to here from Mykonos
(One week, two minds, runnin' out of time)
Yeah you'll love me back to here from Mykonos
