There are times when "how long" Is like howl and so long To the times you knew before Never mind the wherefores and the whys don't care for little hairs that we split anymore You and I don't know the reason why we fell apart Never really find the reason why Could it be that really there was distance in between? Miles from heart to heart No man's a island but for me Your voice a shore across the sea I hear it now so distantly And will eternally Know your worth and hold her To your breast and shoulder All the weight you knew before In time it'll bid you a fond kiss And you'll find that what you miss Is now easy to ignore You and I don't know the reason why we fell apart Never really find the reason why Could it be our lives are islands, separate and vast? Miles from heart to heart No man's a island but for me Your voice a shore across the sea I hear it now so distantly And will eternally There's nowhere left for me to hide An island with a heart inside Breaking Repeat the words "my love we tried" Above the tears already cried Aching No man's a island but for me Your voice a shore across the sea I hear it now so distantly And will eternally Will eternally Will eternally
