I know a heaven on Earth A little island in the sun You can feel the plants growing As the coloured birds fly overhead
This heaven is manned by a tiny angel She walks on it’s wood floors on old t-shirts Keeping up the shine There are sets of tiny feet running Over those floors sometimes
She says it’s so empty without me This heaven on Earth This little island in the sun
The night is a fortress The million lights below Sprawling in a frightening mystery No man can divine
I never want it to go Because it gives me life How will I survive?
I’m far away now And at my chest is handful of heaven's sand I grip it fiercely
Everyday a grain falls As the island moves And the flowers hum
I know a heaven on Earth A little island in the sun It’s far away from everything From everyone
