I've really had it up to here with all those complaints
I don't wanna drown in a lake of tears
Has it ever occurred to you, that nothing's gonna change
And while you talk on and on I'm packing my bags
My mind takes off like an airplane

I have a cold drink on my island far away
The Sun is shining and I'm hiding in the shade
The ocean's roaring, a breeze is blowing, every day
I'm all alone here, so nobody bothers me

Day by day I'm being told what I'm supposed to do
I wonder should I laugh or should I cry
Why would I ever wanna fill somebody else's shoes
And while you talk on and on I'm packing my bags
My mind takes off like an airplane

I have a cold drink on my island far away
The Sun is shining and I'm hiding in the shade
The ocean's roaring, a breeze is blowing, every day
I'm all alone here, so nobody bothers me

I have a cold drink on my island far away
The Sun is shining and I'm hiding in the shade
The ocean's roaring, a breeze is blowing, every day
I'm all alone here, so nobody bothers me

This is my sanctuary
My private sanctuary
