Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Her language was a perfect phrase
Her playful prose followed me for days
Down the alleyways of my desires
To their final resting place
In a vacation town, where I lived year-round
She migrated here with the summer crowds
And we fell in love, under impossible smiles
Life was perfect, if just for a little while
[Verse 2]
Oh whoa, whoa
Hello exile
[Verse 3]
And a thousand years may come and go
We may never meet another soul
Here on our own island of Elba
In the Poconos
[Verse 4]
Oh whoa, whoa
Hello exile
[Verse 5]
And we bathed in the sun, cut our jeans into shorts
Outstared every star in the sky
Under the cover of nowhere, the present was a present
It looked beautiful on you every night
But we knew it would end, yeah
We knew it all along
It was a future never reconciled
It's as if letting your shackled heart feel loved
Was more difficult than total denial
[Verse 6]
Oh whoa, whoa
Hello exile
[Verse 7]
And a thousand years may come and go
I may never meet another soul
Here on my own island of Elba
In the Poconos
[Verse 8]
Oh whoa, whoa
Hello exile
[Verse 9]
Now, I imagined her memory would fade in the void
She'd only reappear every now and again
I'd smile at the thought of us
Go back to my day
But that was purely wishful thinking
[Verse 10]
Oh whoa, whoa
Hello exile
[Verse 11]
And a thousand years may come and go
I may never meet another soul
Here on our own island of Elba
In the Poconos
[Verse 12]
And just play the last set of my mind
Our passions were real from the summertime
Swimming in the Delaware
Wringing out your long blonde hair
[Verse 13]
Oh whoa, whoa
Hello exile
Oh whoa, whoa
Hello exile
