Only an Island

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
