For Isla
Jackie DeShannon
Now it's time to leave
For the distant shore
Hear the four winds blow
Hear the ocean roar
And the bells they keep on ringing
And the songs I keep on singing
For Isla
And we danced til dawn
Then the hurricane
Still the faith lives on
And the love remains
For Isla
And the ships that were lost in the night
To know we'll always be thinking of you
There's so many stories to tell
It took all my courage and hope to get through
For Isla
And the bells they keep on ringing
And the songs I keep on singing
For Isla
As we come and go
Let the words define
That we stayed the course
And we made up rhymes
And the bells they keep on ringing
And the songs I keep on singing
For Isla
For Isla
For Isla
For Isla
