Thinking 'bout a holiday
I was on the M1
Dreaming 'bout my getaway
Let's try reset
In-flight headset
Feeling like I'm fifteen
Wandering with the misfits
And all went silent
Purples, violets
The kind of cursive quiet
One with the starry eyelids
A sweet unsweetened
An eve uneven
The lights trailed like incense
To the figure in the distance
You are all I need
Nothing said could change a thing
Where you go, I go, just say, I'll bе
'Cause you are all I need
I met thе King of Sweden
When I was walking in the headlights
Drowning in a bender
Frozen in a red light
I'm always flying
So I'm always crying
Losing my emotion
On a desert island
Looked just like heaven
Seven alligator seven
Spoke to the reverend
Still filled me with aggression
Slept dry in tents
The moon was glowing incensed
Was it the sun on the horizon?
It lit the figure in the distance
You are all I need
Nothing said could change a thing
Where you go, I go, just say, I'll be
'Cause you are all I need
And you are all I need
Oh, you are all I need
So much more
That means so much more
Future Islands is an American synth-pop band based in Baltimore, Maryland, comprising Gerrit Welmers (keyboards and programming), William Cashion (bass, acoustic and electric guitars), Samuel T. Herring (lyrics and vocals), and Michael Lowry (percussion). The band was formed in January 2006 by Welmers, Cashion and Herring—the remaining members of the performance art college band Art Lord & the Self-Portraits—and drummer Erick Murillo.
Future Islands came to prominence in 2014 with their fourth album Singles released by 4AD. Its lead single "Seasons (Waiting on You)" was considered the best song of 2014 by Pitchfork, and NME and its performance at the Late Show with David Letterman in March 2014, became the most-viewed video on the show's YouTube page.
