Kings of Convenience - Cayman Islands lyrics

Through the alleyways to cool
Off in the shadows
Then into the street, following the water
There's a bearded man paddling in his canoe
Looks as if he has come all
The way from the Cayman Islands

These canals, it seems they all go in circles
Places look the same and
We're the only difference
The wind is in your hair
It's covering my view
I'm holding on to you on a
Bike we've hired until tomorrow

If only they could see
If only they had been here
They would understand how someone
Could have chosen
To go the length I've gone to
Spend just one day riding, holding on to you
I never thought it would be this clear
