Lyrics

Winds cross the sea.
Breezes drift o're the shore, past palm trees.
So I would be where you are.

Remember me. I'm the one whom you wanted to see.
I want you to know
I love you the way that you are.

I took a brief vacation in the wintertime.
At home snow was falling; we danced at night.
Under starry skies and flashing lights
we both knew.

What's to be done?
You spend every day in the sun,
beaming, a radiant light.

Buildings stand tall.
There's a shadow that reaches my wall
on this thin slip of island,
the land where I am tonight.

Babe, we were so peaceful being side by side.
Hearts were heavy as we said good-bye
Tears streamed freely
like my jet plane ride through the night.

Hearts opened wide; we held each other inside
drawn like the tide to the beach.
I'd never planned all I'd need was a touch from your hand
to find a fine home on an island paradise.

As I lie here restless in my bed tonight
I want to see you baby; need to hold you tight.
Please be beside me.
We’ll realize every dream.

Remember me. I'm the one whom you wanted to see.
I want you to know
I love you the way that you are.
