On an island far away…
She sends a message out…
Sent through time and space…
Removing any doubt…
It’s simple, pure and clear…
To be received by only one…
From this goddess of the sea…
Who’s basking in the sun…
Like an arrow from the archer…
Fired into the deep blue sky…
She’s sending out her signal…
Hoping that he will reply…
Praying that he’ll notice…
And be reminded of the past…
Forget the pain she caused him…
Release the anger he’s amassed…
She knows that he’s her soul mate…
And regrets what has been said…
The bitter words and actions…
That caused his hate to spread…
Like a cancer in his mind…
Erasing all that was good…
Isolating his wounded heart…
Because he never understood…
What he did to hurt her…
And force her to escape…
So he tried to forget her face…
And give his life new shape…
But he never shook off the feelings…
Those love and hate extremes…
Now she stands there calling…
The woman of his dreams…
It’s so hard not to notice…
He finds her impossible to ignore…
She is such a stunning creature…
Perhaps it’s time to end the war…
And travel to that island…
Fall straight back into her arms…
Devote his future to her…
And those seductive stunning charms…
But the voices send a warning…
Plant doubts inside his mind…
Could his heart withstand it…
If she was cold and so unkind…
But the message reassures him…
He’s ready to risk it all…
Fall under her magic spell…
And answer her enchanting call…
