[Verse 1]

Lost in whitewashed sands that never end

Palm trees leaning overhead like eager weathered friends

Glass-bottom boats drift slow beyond the breaking line

Crystal water breathing like an echo out of time

[Chorus]

You took my breath then slipped away

Without a single word to say

While I fade beneath the skies of Boracay

A paradise I can’t deny

But we can’t go back to reclaim time

Our love burned out like shooting stars

The sun falls fast between the prison bars then runs away

[Verse 2]

I lie here still among a thousand moving faces

Staring at the hills that God forgot in hidden places

Worlds we dreamed we'd someday know

Still call our hearts to flee and go

the salted shores imprint our silhouette

not long before we all forget

we even came

[Chorus repeat]

You took my breath then slipped away

Without a single word to say

While I fade beneath the skies of Boracay

A paradise I can’t deny

But we can’t go back to reclaim time

Our love burned out like shooting stars

The sun falls fast between the prison bars then runs away.

[Bridge]

The Warm amihan wind blows soft then quickly leaves

Coconuts fall quiet like unspoken broken angel wings

Oceans whisper gently while lost promises still lie asleep

Calling back the memory of you

who I couldn’t seem to keep

[Guitar + bongo solo]

[Verse 3]

Borrowed calm becomes a psalm beneath the island shade

Hiding every shoreline scar disguised by heaven’s grace

Who do we blame when paradise becomes goodbye?

When childish dreams are all that still survive?

[Outro]

Take my breath and walk away

No final words, no need to stay

While I fade beneath the skies

Drifting where the sand and scars still lay

Only hope remains I pray

Quiet here where heartbreak plays

I’ll find a way to stay I pray

where hope was quietly replaced

On the coast of Boracay
