  			Ebsus2                  C#7  
Holding you close undisturbed before a fire 
     C7					G# 
The pressure in my chest when you breathe in my ear 
   Gm7					Fm7          Fm9 
We both knew this would happen when you first appeared 
   Gm7	     Fm7     Fm9 
My lady of the island 
 
The brownness of your body in the fireglow 
Except the places where the sun refused to go 
Our bodies were a perfect fit in afterglow we lay 
My lady of the island 
 
Gm             Fm				E                Eb 
Letting myself wander through the world inside your eyes 
Gm                   Fm				 E         Eb 
You know I'd like to stay here until every tear runs dry 
 
(like verses) 
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do ... 
My lady of the island 
 
Wrapped around each other in the peeping sun 
Beams of sunshine light the stage the red light's on 
I never want to finish what I've just begun with you 
My lady of the island 
 
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do ...
