about

The first song from Josh's forthcoming 4-song EP of the same name.

Inspired by trips to Greek islands and the beauty of those places, this song tells a story of separation, longing and ultimately acceptance. It’s about being honest with yourself when things aren’t working and finding the resolve to move forward from there.

Each song from the EP will be released separately, every Friday across November, starting on Friday 6th.

lyrics

Islands

Save it babe, I don’t wanna know
how it goes
Maybe darlin’, it ain’t happening
we’re still gold

Still gold in the islands
Out alone in the islands
In the waves in the islands

A thousand birds come out of the branches
I walk under
And all those words
that came right out of you
It makes me wonder

But I don’t wanna use
I don’t wanna use your love anymore
I don’t wanna use a world I’m waiting for

OK, i give up, you can tell me
about the ending
Take this what if, these if only’s
I’ve been defending

I’ve been defending
I’ve been defending a world I’m waiting for
no more defending your love anymore

‘cause I don’t wanna use
I don’t wanna use your love anymore
I don’t wanna use a world I’m waiting for
