Lyrics:

I missed you tonight at the party

New York ain't place to feel lonely

So I left for the stranger who knew me

She's sleeping beside me now peacefully

But in my head, I'm miles away

Back on the island again

Laying with you, Marianne

In my head, rolling 'round our bed

We are an island again

I'm Leonard and you're Marianne

Never take me back again

'Cause you know just what you'll get

You know just what you'll get

You show me the bird on the wire

You gave me my songs and my future

And I guess you could say that I've taken Manhattan

Well, you're back on Hydra and dressed in white cotton

But in my head, I'm miles away

Back on the island again

I'm laying with you, Marianne

In my head, rolling 'round our bed

We are an island again

I'm Leonard and you're Marianne

Never take me back again

'Cause you know just what you'll get

You know just what you'll get

I beg you never take me back again

'Cause you know just what you'll get

But I go there in my head

At the Chelsea Hotel, wasted in the arms of a stranger

Every little detail written in the song that betrays ya

At the Chelsea Hotel, I'm wasted in the arms of a stranger

Every little detail written in the song to betray ya

In my head, I'm miles away

Back on the island again

I'm laying with you, Marianne

In my head, rolling 'round our bed

We are an island again

I'm Leonard and you're Marianne

Never take me back again

'Cause you know just what you'll get

You know just what you'll get

I beg you never, never take me back again

'Cause you know just what you'll get

But I go there in my head
