    Woke up at 5:46 am on a Sunday morning to the sounds of my 14 yr old son, 14 yr old granddaughter, and 15 year old daughter transcribing this in the basement then playing it later in the afternoon.

      Yes, the addition of the oboe and piano accompaniment really set this song apart from Crimso's repertoire. I love the lyrics, Peter Sinfield the lyricist is now 80!

    Lyrics:
    Earth, stream and tree encircled by sea
    Waves sweep the sand from my island.
    My sunsets fade.
    Field and glade wait only for rain
    Grain after grain love erodes my
    High weathered walls which fend off the tide
    Cradle the wind
    To my island.
    Gaunt granite climbs where gulls wheel and glide
    Mournfully glide o'er my island.
    My dawn bride's veil, damp and pale
    Dissolves in the sun.
    Love's web is spun - cats prowl, mice run
    Wreathe snatch-hand briars where owls know my eyes
    Violet skies
    Touch my island
    Touch me.
    Beneath the wind turned wave
    Infinite peace
    Islands join hands
    'Neath heaven's sea.
    Dark harbour quays like fingers of stone
    Hungrily reach from my island.
    Clutch sailor's words - pearls and gourds
    Are strewn on my shore.
    Equal in love, bound in circles.
    Earth, stream and tree return to the sea
    Waves sweep sand from my island
    From me.
    Beneath the wind turned wave
    Infinite peace
    Islands join hands
    'Neath heaven's sea.

    Somebody should mention who wrote the words: Peter Sinfield. Islands proved to be the last King Crimson album for which Sinfield wrote lyrics.

      I think he is truly a great poet in the best tradition of the English language, his perceptions, mood nuance and classical references are just spot on-and I hope that does not sound pretentious!
