if you don't treat me better
baby, i'll just run away
baby, i don't know what drives you
to play all these silly games
c'mon, baby
i'm much stronger than you know
sometimes
i'm not afraid to let it show

CHORUS
when will you wake up
i want you more than the stars and the sun
but i can take
only so much
cool on your island
is it cool on your island

i gotta brand new dress, babe
could it make you wanna try
i guess i didn't want to notice
the stars gone from your eyes
c'mon, baby
i'm much stronger than you know
sometimes
i'm not afraid to let it show

REPEAT CHORUS

we could buy an airplane
build a home in the sand
you could tell your secrets
i could understand
but then by the morning
comes crumblin' down
and as your leavin'
wait

CHORUS
when will you wake up
i want you more than the stars and the sun
but i can take
only so much
cool on your island
you're so cool on your island
is it cool on your island
is it cool, baby

if you don't treat me better
baby i'll just run away
if you don't
treat me
one day
you'll wake up cold
then you'll know
you'll know
you'll know
you love me
