Island
Florida Georgia Line Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah this place is wall to wall, can't barely move, takes fifteen minutes just to get a drink
It's crazy here, this crowd tonight's so loud in here you can hardly think
But everything's fading babe, cause you're all I see
It's like we're alone in here baby

We might as well be on an island, we might as well be on the moon
The way you're looking at me baby, can't take my eyes off you
Feels like the world is disappearing every time we touch
We're so caught up in each other, it's just the two of us
We might as well be on an island, we might as well be on an island

It's just me and you, back corner booth, we're sitting on the same seat
Got my hands all over you and, yeah girl, you're all over me
Like nobody's watching us baby, let them all see
Still that ain't stopping us baby

We might as well be on an island, we might as well be on the moon
The way you're looking at me baby, can't take my eyes off you
Feels like the world is disappearing every time we touch
We're so caught up in each other, it's just the two of us
We might as well be on an island, we might as well be on an island

We might as well be on an island
Like we're the last two on this Earth
Like we're frozen here in time
Like it's empty here tonight

We might as well be on an island, we might as well be on the moon
The way you're looking at me baby, can't take my eyes off you
Feels like the world is disappearing every time we touch




We're so caught up in each other, it's just the two of us
We might as well be on an island, we might as well be on an island, yeah

Overall Meaning

The song "Island" by Florida Georgia Line is a romantic song about a couple who is lost in love amid the chaos of a packed bar. The first verse mentions the loud and crowded environment of the bar, but the singer is so taken by their partner that they hardly notice. The chorus compares their experience to being on a deserted island or on the moon, where they are completely isolated and focused only on each other. They feel like the rest of the world is disappearing when they're together, and their love is so deep that it's just the two of them in the entire world.


The second verse of the song takes the scene to a back corner booth, where the couple is so lost in their own world that they're oblivious to anyone else who may be watching them. They feel uninhibited and confident in their love and nothing else matters. This continues in the bridge, where they feel like they are the last two people on earth or frozen in time, but they are happy to be wrapped up in each other's love.


Overall, the song is an ode to the all-consuming love that can make a person feel like they are living on an island, focused only on their partner. Despite the chaos around them, they feel completely enveloped in their own little bubble of love.
