The Music of the Islands by Tiffany Hulse Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It’s the song that’s heard throughout the land
A song that’s sung without a band
Hear them start to sing once the sun goes down
Listen to the melody, it’s all around
[Chorus]
It’s the music of the islands
You couldn’t stop it if you tried
It’s not the kind you’re used to, no
Nature brings it in with the tide
[Verse 2]
The days are short, the nights are long
Rain drops fall on the palm fronds
The boats go fishing, the tide comes in
Grab your fishing pole and a bottle of gin
[Chorus]
It’s the music of the islands
You couldn’t stop it if you tried
It’s not the kind you’re used to, no
Nature brings it in with the tide
[Bridge]
The sun so bright
It warms the skin
Lighthouse at night
The fog rolls in
[Verse 3]
The calm blowing winds make the green grass sway
And the tropical fish swim around in the bay
Calypso sounds flowing from a steel pan
Come walk with me across the warm pink sand
[Chorus]
It’s the music of the islands
You couldn’t stop it if you tried
It’s not the kind you’re used to, no
Nature brings it in with the tide
[Chorus]
It’s the music of the islands
You couldn’t stop it if you tried
It’s not the kind you’re used to, no
Nature brings it in with the tide
[Outro]
Well it’s not the kind you’re used to, no
Nature brings it in with the tide
It’s the song that’s heard throughout the land
A song that’s sung without a band
Hear them start to sing once the sun goes down
Listen to the melody, it’s all around
[Chorus]
It’s the music of the islands
You couldn’t stop it if you tried
It’s not the kind you’re used to, no
Nature brings it in with the tide
[Verse 2]
The days are short, the nights are long
Rain drops fall on the palm fronds
The boats go fishing, the tide comes in
Grab your fishing pole and a bottle of gin
[Chorus]
It’s the music of the islands
You couldn’t stop it if you tried
It’s not the kind you’re used to, no
Nature brings it in with the tide
[Bridge]
The sun so bright
It warms the skin
Lighthouse at night
The fog rolls in
[Verse 3]
The calm blowing winds make the green grass sway
And the tropical fish swim around in the bay
Calypso sounds flowing from a steel pan
Come walk with me across the warm pink sand
[Chorus]
It’s the music of the islands
You couldn’t stop it if you tried
It’s not the kind you’re used to, no
Nature brings it in with the tide
[Chorus]
It’s the music of the islands
You couldn’t stop it if you tried
It’s not the kind you’re used to, no
Nature brings it in with the tide
[Outro]
Well it’s not the kind you’re used to, no
Nature brings it in with the tide
