about
This track is the first single of Afternoon Talk's "Contradiction" album.
Island by Afternoon Talk is an interpretation of their hometown that awarded by many beaches to simply unwind. Imagine everyday visiting to the beach, embraced by the warm sun, inducing pleasant thoughts of tropical breezes, crashing waves, sun tan lotion and naps on the beach. This song tells this enjoyment. “We can dance we can dance along the night, we can sing we can sing until the sunrise”.
lyrics
Lyrics:
We can build a kingdom here
And we can start a colony
Cause it’s just you and i lay here in silence
I start to wonder..
If i could find inside the wild A tiger, a lion, an elephant and elses
I’d ask them to bring all their fine friends to the seashore.. Oooo Oooo..
We can dance, we can dance along the night
We can sing, we can sing until the sunrise
Around the fireside we’ll be drunk and fall asleep
In our island, in our treasure island..
We can walk by the shimmering sand
The sky is as blue as your eyes, it’s where i would stay
We’ll find some games to play
Let’s feel the breeze and fly away
We don’t have much to say
So let’s just get your boat and catch the wave!
We can dance, we can dance along the night
We can sing, we can sing until the sunrise
Around the fireside we’ll be drunk and fall asleep
In our island, in our treasure island..
