How many tear drops must I cry Before I let you pass on by Cause this island feeling, no no island feeling I just want it to pass on by Well lose the ground, but we're bound Only teardrops can be found This island singin', we're both still drinkin' But when the morning comes I know you'll be gone I'm packing my bags, I'm moving on and on Cause the fires still burnin', embers on ashes Now take it on back, take it on back How many teardrops must I cry Before I let you pass on by Cause this island feeling, no no island feeling I just want it to pass on by When the night closes and you're left with no one Me call it island feeling cause me left all alone Now been on the pavement cause me got no one here Only which me loving is what me offering Cause you want to call, you know got to be leaving Now baby girl in quicksand you got me got me sinkin' all alone Well lose the ground, but we're bound Only teardrops can be found This island singin', we're both still drinkin' But when the morning comes I know you'll be gone I'm packing my bags, I'm moving on and on Cause the fires still burnin', embers on ashes Now take it on back, take it on back How many teardrops must I cry Before I let you pass on by Cause this island feeling, no no island feeling I just want it to pass on by Go on... Go on... Go on... Go on...
