Swim to the island
Surrounded by the tide
One half drowning
The other one alive
Oh, an awful long way to go
Oh, an awful long time ago

Hold for the island
The seer in the sky
Gently drowning
Your tiny yellow eyes
Oh, an awful long way to go
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, my soul
Be clean once more
My soul
Once more be clean

Even on the island
Night is gonna fall
Sunset's burning
Underneath it all
Oh, an awful long way to go
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, my soul
Be clean once more
My soul
Once more be clean
My soul
Be clean once more
My soul
Once more be clean
My soul
Once more be clean
