In the Middle Of an Island

(1969)

In the middle of an island
In the center of a lake is where I want to go.
I want to fix the bridge that
Holds me back so I can go and go.

I want to be there right now.
I need to be there today.
But when I'll get there I'll never know.
I know I'm not there today.

As I cross the bridge I look into the lake
And There's someone doing the same.
I see small trees swaying to and fro,
Just waiting to shade me.

I want to be there right now,
I need to be there today,
When I get there I'll live slow.
I know I'm not There today.

(Repeat first verse)
