Black Pontiac - Island Honey

Dusty pockets and scars all across his hands he's a working man
Dior perfume and lipstick stains on her champagne glasses
Between church and art school classes

He's got the time to spare
Lonely sailor his job brings him no joy
She doesn't really care
Long as she's with her new lover boy

Who says he knows a place where they can ride the ocean waves away like shooting stars
Trashing hotel rooms and raiding open bars
They could leave the city far away, one day for
Just one taste of

Strawberries and some island honey by the beachside, bless me, diving into holy water
Skylines in the rearview mirror I could hold you nearer to me
Heaven's just a breath away
Away, away

So baby let the wind blow back your hair
Top down, California type beat
You could leave it all behind I dare you
The worlds a little crazy and

I know when I say crazy we both know I mean insane
But I know a blue sky's waiting for us both after the rain
Leave our tag on every wall and train
Can you feel it it's
So sweet, this freedom

Strawberries and some island honey by the beachside, bless me, diving into holy water
Skylines in the rearview mirror I could hold you nearer to me
Heavens just a breath away
Away, away
Away, away

We go, we go, I just wanna live and she know she know, that I just wanna live like
I take the stairs two or three steps at a time
Like that rush I get we get we go commit some petty crime
We go, we go, I just wanna live and she know she know, that I just wanna live like
I take the stairs two or three steps at a time
Like that rush I get we get we go commit some petty crime
We go, we go, I just wanna live and she know she know, oh I can feel it oh I really need that one last taste of

Strawberries and some island honey by the beachside, bless me, diving into holy water
Skylines in the rearview mirror I could hold you nearer to me
Heavens just a breath away
Strawberries and some island honey by the beachside, bless me, diving into holy water
Skylines in the rearview mirror I could hold you nearer to me
Heavens just a breath away

Away, away
Away, away
Away, away
Oh, Heaven's just a breath away
