[Nelly Furtado]

Adolescent dreams

(Runnin' in stride with me)

Reason for misbehavin'

Indulgin' all my cravings

Makin' time for daydreamin'

And never really seein'

I sit around just teemin'

Everything losin' meanin'



Is this the meanin' of bein' free?

The only one of us livin' is me

Is this our one true destiny?

Everywhere I look on the scene

Are islands of me, me, me

Islands of me, me, me

Islands of me, me, me

Islands of me....



The custom of my country is to never grow up

Run away from everything 'til I get better luck

Why should I have to look and never touch

What I wanna touch, what I wanna touch

What I wanna touch?



Is this the meanin' of bein' free?

The only one of us livin' is me

Is this what we are meant to be?

Everywhere I look on the scene

Are islands of me, me, me

Islands of me, me, me

Islands of me, me, me

Islands of me, me, me



Adolescent dreams breakin' out of me

But the sun is comin' and the world is runnin'

Kool-Aid I drink, pour it on the street

Do it in memory of my melancholy



Is this the meanin' of bein' free?

The only one of us livin' is me

Is this what we are meant to be?

Everywhere I look on the scene

Are islands of me, me, me

Islands of me, me, me

Islands of me, me, me

Islands of me, me, me

Islands of me, me, me

Islands of me, me, me

Islands of me, me, me



(Islands of me...!)
