I wish I were stranded on a tropical island A tropical island with you You could make art from coconuts and starfish Yeah, coconuts and starfish might be a good place to start
And I could build a crude instrument Out of a conch shell and driftwood And tightly roll a papaya leaf to use for a string Or two Then I could play and you could sing We wouldn't want for anything Serenading each other by the light of the moon...
Every evening we could snuggle underneath the stars You could be Venus, I could be Mars We could lay our differences aside (except the good ones) I'm safe in you, you're safe in me, No need to hide
I wish I were stranded on a tropical island A tropical island with you And we'd bake clams in the hot, hot sand Under the afternoon Sun And brew a crazy chowder using sea salt and kelp (help!) Then we'd make love on the beach as the water nips at our toes Under the setting sun when the day is done
