Minnie Riperton – Island In The Sun

(M. Riperton – R. Rudolph)

If you come with me

I will show you things you always dreamed of

We can make it happen on our island in the sun

Every morning we will swim in

Cool clear sparkling waters

Wrapped in purple satin nights

We’ll make slow love

If you come with me

Please bring all your secret yernings

You’ll find what you need on our island in the sun

Close your eyes and you will hear the palm trees gently swaying

I can hardly wait to get my hands on you

Time is wastin’

Come pluck the fruit your mind is tastin’

Or will you keep on chasin’

“If only it could be”

If you come with me

We’ll live happy ever after

We could be so free on our island in the sun

Secret thoughts your heart conceals like ancient buried treasures

Will at last be whispered in love’s ear

Time is wastin’

Come pluck the fruit your mind is tastin’

Or will you keep on chasin’

“Oh, If only it could be”

Come with me

We could be so free

If you come with me

We could be so happy

Come to my island

Come to my island

Come to my island
