"Hell Is An Island" lyrics

"Hell Is An Island"

I thought the tropical breeze
And añejo tequila
Would do what it should
I thought that beach bonfire parties
And songs by Bob Marley
Would make me feel good
And I thought that I would find heaven
If I could just get outta my neighborhood

But hell is an island without you
Hotel room with an ocean view
Who knew the sky could be so blue
And hell is an island
Without you

I thought it wouldn't be the same down here
So I got me a ticket on a plane down here
Yeah, I thought I'd be better if I came down here
But I ain't any better I'm just down, down here
Yeah, the breeze and the waves and the sand ain't doin' it for me
And this drink in my hand ain't doin' shit for me
Who knew the sky'd be blue and the sun would be shinin'
And hell is an island
Who knew hell is an island

This pineapple strawberry daiquiri's
Takin' me back to the night that we met
I figured you'd disappear
But you're just getting clearer and clearer
The drunker I get
Guess it doesn't matter how far that I go
Girl, I can't get you outta my head

Hell is an island without you
Hotel room with an ocean view
Who knew the sky could be so blue
And hell is an island
Without you

I thought it wouldn't be the same down here
So I got me a ticket on a plane down here
Yeah, I thought I'd be better if I came down here
But I ain't any better I'm just down, down here
Yeah, the breeze and the waves and the sand ain't doin' it for me
And this drink in my hand ain't doin' shit for me
Who knew the sky'd be blue and the sun would be shinin'
And hell is an island

Hell is an island without you
Hotel room with an ocean view
Who knew the sky could be so blue

I thought it wouldn't be the same down here
So I got me a ticket on a plane down here
Yeah, I thought I'd be better if I came down here
But I ain't any better I'm just down, down here
Yeah, the breeze and the waves and the sand ain't doin' it for me
And this drink in my hand ain't doin' shit for me
Who knew the sky'd be blue and the sun would be shinin'
And hell is an island
Who knew hell is an island
Mmm yeah
