It's not what you've got
It's what you give
It's not how you die
It's how you live
It's not what you reap
It's what you sow
It's not what you keep now
It's what you let go.
Well now...easy does it
Make this moment last
Don't worry 'bout the future
But don't forget about the past.
It don't really matter where I've
Been or what I've done
I just keep on searching
For that island in the sun.
...and I'll keep searching (island in the sun)
I'm gonna find my island in the sun
No known location
It ain't on no map
Takes concentration
It won't fall into your lap
It ain't in the whiskey
It ain't in the drug
It could be a woman
When she leads you to love.
Easy does it
Make this moment last
Don't worry 'bout the future 
Don't forget about the past
It don't really matter where I've
Been or what I've done
I'll just keep on searching
For that island in the sun
...and I'll keep on searching (island in the sun)
I'm gonna keep on searching
Once upon a time
I couldn't move without a spliff
But now I've stopped hiding
I've got so much more to give
I got so much more to give
I got so much love to give
It don't really matter where I've
Been or what I've done
I'll just keep on searching for my island in the sun
I'll keep on searching (island in the sun)
I'm gonna keep on searching
I gotta keep on searching.
In the long run it won't matter
Where I've been or what I've done
As long as I keep searching
For that island in the sun.
