lyrics

(Chorus)
Will you meet me on Spirit Island?
Will you love me — till the end of time?
I will meet you on Spirit Island
I will love you — till the end of time

There’s an eye in a mountain that opens to heaven
There’s a face of an old man smiling back at the sun
There’s a lake in a valley surrounded by mountains
Crowned with snow — and rivers of ice

There’s a tiny island — shaped like a tear drop
An eagle soars above me — calling my name
At the edge of the forest — still in the shadows
A gentle spirit — awaits my return

Chorus

As the boat makes its landing —
I now sense your presence
I have to remind myself —
I’ve never been here before
As I follow the path — that leads to the island
I think of the girl — who loved me so well

As I gaze at the island —
that holds me spellbinding,
The silence still chanting —
in this valley of gods
I hear the slight rustle —
in the woods just behind me
And only for only a moment —
I glimpse your sweet soul

Chorus

And now the sun’s setting — on Spirit Island
The long shadows tell me — that I must go
Back on the boat — I look to the shoreline
And see you in the distance — all silver and gold

Chorus

We will marry on Spirit Island
And our love will last —— for all time
