Island Fever

(album: Don't Give Up Your Day Job - 1987)

I said put yourself in my shoes
You know I hate to lose
Would you stick around and get your heart broken?
She said I don't want you to go
She said I don't want you to go
'Cause you know you can't hide away
You will need me
You will need me

I've got island fever
Need to be holding her again
I've got island fever
I keep remembering
She said those lazy tropical breezes
Won't blow that moon away
Why didn't I believe her?
I've got island fever

My solitude is wearing thin
My tiny world is closing in
And I can't get her words out of my head
She said I don't want you to go
She said I don't want you to go
'Cause you know you can't hide away
You will need me
You will need me

I've got island fever
Need to be holding her again
I've got island fever
I keep remembering
She said those lazy tropical breezes
Won't blow that moon away
Why didn't I believe her?
I've got island fever

I swear I'm not giving in
I'm over it now
I tell you I'm digging in
I'm over it now
