Koop Island Blues——Koop featuring Ane BrunLyrics courtesy of www.lyricsmania.com.
Hello my love
It's getting cold on this island
I'm sad alone
I'm so sad on my own
The truth is
We were much too young
Now I'm looking for you
Or anyone like you
We said goodbye
With the smile on our faces
Now you're alone
You're so sad on your own
The truth is
We run out of time
Now you're looking for me
Or anyone like me
Na na na na...
Hello my love
It's getting cold on this island
I'm sad alone
I'm so sad on my own
The truth is
We were much too young
Now I'm looking for you
Or anyone like you
What drew me to this piece is partly due to the smooth caribbean jazzy feel of the instrumentation, and of course the wistful lyrics. The first time I actually paid attention to the lyrics, I found that it was quite relevant to what I had been experiencing for quite a while. In some ways, we never seem to break out of the mold of our first few lovers---time and time again we end up being attracted to someone of a similar nature as those we've been with before, as irrational as it seems.
Very simple lyrics, but with something a little more deep than the usual ``lost love'' genre songs.
