    'Cuz time's somethin you know moves way too fast, and I don't know how.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        I just wish I'd held you way more than that, but it's too late now.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 So say hello to the islands for me. 'Cuz you know I would

          how happy I would be. So say he-                                                                                                                                                 -llo to the islands for me.

                                   When you left me, I'd never felt so small, like nothing at all.

         And who will catch me whenever I may fall or hit a wall. So I                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   Guess that's up to me, and I will find who I'm s'posed to be.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  But until then, mmm don't forget about me.

                                                                                                                                                                           Say hello to the islands for me. 'Cuz you know I would

                                                                             -llo to the islands for me. And thank you for the

                                                   Times. 'Cuz I learned how to

                         Fly. Because of you.

              Say hello to the islands for me.                                                                                                                                                  'Cuz you know I would love them, if only I could see.

         And when you leave behind the waters and palm trees                                                                                                               You don't know how exited I will be                                                                                                                               When you say goodbye to the islands and hello to me.
