I'm an island
|
Everyone can see that I'm an island
|
I've got ocean just about everywhere that I can see
|
And I'll be stranded unless you come to me
|
And I'm lonely
|
|
I would rather fall from grace completely
|
Than let you change my mind
|
And I would rather bet my life against the rising of the sun
|
|
Can't be too careful bout the friends you keep around you
|
Some who never let you down
|
Some who fail you every day
|
And it's a blatant disrespect of privacy
|
It amazes me
|
|
I would rather fall from grace completely
|
Than let you change my mind
|
And I would rather bet my life against the rising of the sun
|
|
I'm an island
|
Can't you understand me?
|
I'm an island?
|
And I'm finally by myself, the way I've got to be
|
And that's exactly the thing that's been killing me
|
|
I would rather fall from grace completely
|
Than let you change my mind
|
And I would rather bet my life against the rising of the sun
|
|
I would rather fall from grace completely
|
Than let you change my mind
|
And I would rather bet my life against the rising of the sun
|
|
I would rather fall from grace completely
|
Than let you change my mind
|
And I would rather bet my life against the rising of the sun
|
The rising...
