Listening to every heart

Five by Six

To languish
In your arms
To realize
Heaven’s charms
On our island
Just five by six

Brown eyes
The shore you be
Green eyes
A calm sea
On our island
Just five by six

Life is graced
By your kind face
My hand in yours
Wishes assured
On our island
Just five by six

New dreams made
Memories recalled
My hair now white
You’re a bit bald
On our island
Just five by six

And when it is very
Alone and solitary
Its brown eyes that be
In green eyes at sea
On our island
Just five by six.
