THUNDER ISLAND

Jay Ferguson



Sha la la la la la my lady

In the sun with your hair undone

Can you hear me now calling

Your name from across the bay

A summer's day laughing and a-hiding

Chasing love out on Thunder Island



She ws the color of the Indian summer

And we shared the hours without number

Until one day when the sky turned dark

And the winds grew wild

Caught by the rain and blinded by the lightning

We rode the storm out there on Thunder Island



I held her close until the storm passed

And we fell down laughing in the wet grass

Both our bodies drying in the sunshine, sweet sunshine

So sha la la la la la my land

In the sun with your dress undone

Now ev'ry mile away and ev'ry day

Cuts a little deeper

I'll remember the nights in the cool grass

Making love out on Thunder Island
