Only an island and the lonely horizon Knows what it's like to be pushed by the tide Just to pull you back in Surrounded by water, going nowhere but under No one's breaking your heart It's just you and the dark to have and to hold One glass for water, another one for wine Both are half empty most of the time So lay down beside her, and tell her you love her 'Cause only an island is better alone
Too many nights spent in this empty apartment The pictures in boxes, the walls are all talking Wondering where all the days went The sound of the silence ain't the only reminder I'm counting every mistake that I've ever made And all the lies that I told One glass for water, another one for wine Both are half empty most of the time So lay down beside her, and tell her you love her 'Cause only an island is better alone ♪ If you ever find her, tell her you love her 'Cause only an island Only an island Only an island is better alone
