In all the time that I've known you |
| You've been so edgy and nervous |
| I never wanted to own you |
I was aware of the danger |
| Of making a bid for your favours |
| You're such a natural stranger |
| I made excuses and ran |
You're an island |
| But I can't leave you all out at sea |
| You're so violent with your silence |
| You're an island |
| I can't sleep |
| Won't you speak to me |
| I'm on dry land |
| Won't you help me please |
In all the time that I've known you |
| There has been something between us |
| I don't think it's my imagination |
I felt like I couldn't touch you |
| But I had the feeling you'd love to |
| Tell me the truth if you could do |
| I made excuses and ran |
You're an island |
| But I can't leave you all out at sea |
| You're so violent with your silence |
| You're an island I can't sleep |
| Won't you speak to me |
| I'm on dry land |
| Won't you help me please |
