Island in the sea
  Are so much like me
  They don't ever change--no emotion, no emotion
  
  Islands on the land
  Dry like desert sand
  Island in the city
  All alone it's such a pity
  
  CHORUS
  It's just a masquerade
  Just painted laces
  When will it change
  Never
  
  Islands in the seas
  What's come over me
  We are both surrounded by the water--empty water
  Give me mystery--and the fear it brings
  Anything at all to break up the monotony
  
  CHORUS
  
  Islands in the sea
  Forever . . . forever
