Isla Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Time goes so fast, and sometimes so does life
I'd let you go but my darling you fit right
And I'm in love
I hope I cross your path another time
I took a chance, and it left me paralysed
A year without you was as lethal as a knife
And I'm terrified
I'm back to being me without a bride

[Chorus]
Isla, Isla wait for me
Isla, please don't forget me

[Verse 2]
When I returned I could barely sleep at night
An empty bed and a tear drop in my eye
Later that day
The kerosene would meet the naked flames
I tried my luck, and I took you to one side
Confessed my love and how it almost cost my life I'd give it all
For just another late night on the grove

[Chorus]
Isla, Isla wait for me
Oh Isla, please don't set me free
Oh Isla, my love, follow me
At your altar, I can't hold my peace

[Verse 3]
I heard the bells, on the short walk from church to your garden
Above the marque, his contrails aligned for you
He is watching, he follows in your magpie army
Over railroads, I can't help but raise both of my feet

[Chorus]
Isla, Isla conquer me
Oh Isla, you're the one I see
Oh Isla, please grow old with me
At your altar, I sure hope its me
