ISLAND LIFE
I’ve been workin' late on Friday night
And I'm goin' in on Caturday
I’ve been thinkin' bout the island light
As another summer peels away
Hanging in this curtain
Grey skies over urban
Lately my mind’s been wanderin’
To where the horizon shoulda been
Touch, but I can’t be certain,
Where it all ends I start again,
Let’s blow it off
I wanna get away
I wanna hear some music
I wanna hear ya say
All the world’s an island, life is free,
Half a million friends, but I’m lonely,
As the glaciers fall and raise the sea,
Won’t you save some island life for me?
Why can’t we all just live in peace?
Sometimes I break down in the morning and cry
Scream out in the night
Only to realize
There’s nothing in the world we can’t do
Anything we set our minds to
Maybe someday I won’t always be alone
Hanging in this curtain
Grey skies over urban
Lately my mind’s been wanderin'
Right over the silver lining
South, to the blue shining
A postcard sent home to mom
All the world’s an island, life is free,
Every day looks still more crazy,
Greta sailed the wide and open sea,
For to save some island life for she
For we

Eric Din Berkeley, California
I'm a guitarist and singer-songwriter with The Uptones. These are my solo recordings, starting from 2015. I started Berkeley Cat Records in 2019. BandCamp is the first place I publish these puppies, before I send them into the streaming wilds. Wait, you ask, Berkeley Cat Records has puppies? Why yes, Matilda. Thanks for popping in, hope you enjoy the tunes! ... more
