Cheyenne Island

1. Cheyenne Island

Cheyenne Island

(verse 1)

nothing wrong with being a late bloomer

as long as you catch up

she went to the harbor

and wanted to leave

so she could grow up

she set a course for Cheyenne Island

(chorus)

the town's folk say they saw her go

the lighthouse keeper said he looked across the water

and saw her in a dress about to tip her toe

into the foggy lake

they never saw her again

but she's very much alive

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

she didn't understand the way

the world works

she never knew words could

cause them to bring out pitchforks

so she left this one-horse town

and set out on a journey

(chorus)

the town's folk say they saw her go

the lighthouse keeper said he looked across the water

and saw her in a dress about to tip her toe

into the foggy lake

they never saw her again

but she's very much alive

the town's folk say they saw her go

the lighthouse keeper said he looked across the water

and saw her in a dress about to tip her toe

into the foggy lake

they never saw her again

but she's very much alive

(end chorus)

(bridge)

she grew sick of being treated like a kid

couldn't be an adult so she went and hid

herself away like a child in a cupboard

only to be free and everyone thinks she dead

(chorus)

the town's folk say they saw her go

the lighthouse keeper said he looked across the water

and saw her in a dress about to tip her toe

into the foggy lake

they never saw her again

but she's very much alive

the town's folk say they saw her go

the lighthouse keeper said he looked across the water

and saw her in a dress about to tip her toe

into the foggy lake

they never saw her again

but she's very much alive

(end chorus)
