Heaven Was An Island
The skies were blue and gentle
The sands were soft and fine
And when you'd finally spent all, baby
You total cost was time
Heaven was an island
Where anger was a crime
The trees and flowers bowed
To breezes ever ready
To cool the heated brow
Heaven was an island
That couldn't happen now
Your father's name was freedom
Your mother's name was peace
And if one day you need 'em, honey
You'll find them not with ease
For heaven is an island
Our leaders say must cease
El Cielo Era una Isla
Los cielos eran azules y suaves
Las arenas eran suaves y finas
Y cuando finalmente gastabas todo, cariño
Tu costo total era tiempo
El cielo era una isla
Donde la ira era un crimen
Los árboles y flores se inclinaban
A las brisas siempre listas
Para refrescar la frente caliente
El cielo era una isla
Eso no podría suceder ahora
El nombre de tu padre era libertad
El nombre de tu madre era paz
Y si algún día los necesitas, cariño
No los encontrarás fácilmente
Porque el cielo es una isla
Nuestros líderes dicen que debe cesar
