lyrics

Man alone on an island with a garden
Died alone, nobody there to save him the way we wanted

His only job to voyage to show to bring them to their boat
A wave across the water was all it took
He’d buy flour from the township for his bread
The only time they’d see him
Though the knowledge he seemed to have
Said that one who saw him

Man alone on an island with a garden
Died alone, nobody there to save him the way we wanted

He would spend the day fishing for his dinner away from society
He had a large concrete sailing boat where alone he would sail the sea

Man alone on an island with a garden
Died alone, nobody there to save him the way we wanted
Man alone on an island with a garden
Died alone, nobody there to save him the way we wanted
The way he chose
