Barbados (i/bɑːrˈbeɪdɒs/ or /bɑːrˈbeɪdoʊs/) is a sovereign island country in the Lesser Antilles, in the Americas. It is 34 kilometres (21 mi) in length and up to 23 kilometres (14 mi) in width, covering an area of 432 square kilometres (167 sq mi). It is situated in the western area of the North Atlantic and 100 kilometres (62 mi) east of the Windward Islands and the Caribbean Sea; therein, it is about 168 kilometres (104 mi) east of the islands of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and 400 kilometres (250 mi) north-east of Trinidad and Tobago. Barbados is outside of the principal Atlantic hurricane belt. Its capital is Bridgetown.
Inhabited by Kalingo people since the 13th century, and prior to that by other Amerindians, Barbados was visited by Spanish navigators in the late 15th century and claimed for the Spanish Crown. It first appears on a Spanish map from 1511. The Portuguese visited the island in 1536, but they left it unclaimed, with their only remnants being an introduction of wild hogs for a good supply of meat whenever the island was visited. An English ship, the Olive Blossom, arrived in Barbados in 1625; its men took possession of it in the name of King James I. In 1627, the first permanent settlers arrived from England, and it became an English and later British colony.

Late at night
Late at night
when the feeling gets to hard to fight
he reaches for the phone
then stops himself afraid that he may find she's not alone
Late at night
she lies awake and holds her pillow tight
and cries his name out loud
but she would never ever call
the Lady's much to proud
two lost and lonely people
living apart and belonging together
regretting that they let each other go ohhhh
two sad and starving people
giving up the chance of forever
never letting one and other know
they still need each other so
late at night
waiting out the hours till its light
they know how wrong they've been
but both of them are caught up in believing
reaching out means giving in
so he hopes that he'll stop hurting
and she prays she'll be alright
and they both wait for the morning
late at night
two foolish frightened people
giving up a chance at forever
never letting one an other know
they still want each other so
late at night
waiting out the hours till its light
they know how wrong they've been
but both of them are caught up in believing
reaching out means giving in
and so he settle down to drinking
she takes another pill to keep from thinking
and neither makes a move to make it right
as they both wait for the morning
