Island In The Sun
Mr. Deeds (OST) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I roam
Oh we keep on falling in the night
Into the unknown
I can hear them cry
Oeh, I can hear them moan
But in this face you'll find
No, no fear
And as I look inside
Get away from here
This place I roam
There's many lights
It's plain to see
Some shine bright
Others feint
Some are cold
And some are warm
Can you feel them?
Which one died
The ones who guide
And light up places
That you've never seen before
I'm a drifting man
Or am I just floating
No aim, I'm directionless
Oeh, no way of knowing
Gotta learn to burrow
No, 'cause we cannot steal
All this sorrow that we were born to heal
And I'm far away
There's many lights
It's plain to see
Some shine bright
Others feint
Some are cold
And some are warm
Can you feel them?
Which one died
The ones who guide
And light up places
That you've never seen before
(Get into the sun)
Get in the sun
(Oeh in the sun)
Get in the sun
Before you know it's over
(I am home in the sun)
I am never at home
As I roam in the sun
There's many lights
It's plain to see
Some shine bright
Others feint
Some are cold
And some are warm
Can you feel them?
Which one died
The ones who guide




And light up places
That you've never seen before

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Island in the Sun" by Mr. Deeds (OST) describe the perspective of a drifting and directionless person. The singer seems to be on a journey or wandering without aim, and he can hear people's cries and moans. But despite the noises and chaos, he doesn't feel fear. He looks inside himself, trying to find the way out, and asking whether he's just floating or truly on a mission. The song reflects on life's different paths and how they may lead to either light or darkness.


The singer describes a place where he roams, and there are many lights. Some shine brightly while others barely do so. Within this place, there is warmth as well as coldness, and the listener is asked to feel the emotions of the lights. The ones that shine, guide and take us to new places we've never seen before. After exploring this land of lights, the singer encourages us to join him in the sun before it's over.

The use of light and darkness as metaphors signifies the ups and downs of life, leading to both happiness and sorrow. The singer's message is one of hope and exploration, urging us to get into the sun, take in the light, and experience the different emotions and places it leads us to.
