I’m an island in the ocean free and I belong to no-one At the mercy of the sea the waves play like a symphony crashing in from all directions
Ships pass and planes fly over looks like they’re speeding fast but going nowhere and they never seem to notice me no time for new discovery trying to reach their destination
‘cause you can go anywhere you want and you can be whatever you wanna be you can do anything, do anything want but don’t you forget about me
Stranded out here in the open walking in the wrong direction in a lonely world of fantasy don’t give up so easily try to make a new connection
I can feel it coming, feel it everywhere a kinda strange sensation, something in the air, a million words could never fill a last goodbye so give me one more night
He’s holding up but sure enough he’s tearing at the seams, beat up and tried like a little rag doll But he’s old enough and strong enough to remember the man he used to be, the life and soul
But when he’s home sitting all alone too drunk to be around anyone too blind to see all the damage done, man that ain’t no way to have fun
Somebody said happiness ain’t getting what you want but wanting what you get it’s a state of mind, let yourself go free Everybody’s searching for someone they think they oughta,trying to wanna, never never never really be
Cos when you’re home sitting all alone too tired to be around anyone, too blind to see you’re not the only one Man that ain’t no way to have fun
People fight to make it right to hold on to that feeling inside and some might say it’s a losing game, be a fool to play; don’t even try But no, not you and I, we make it look so easy
Some start off fast and end up last; find their falling at the first but even when the road is long we’re going strong, don’t feel like work
And they tell me that I am the luckiest guy cos when it comes to loving, you and I we make it look so easy
we don’t have to try at all cos it comes so natural and love can be impossible but we make it look so easy
there’s so many who strive through complications to find a simple kinda love like you and I we make it look so easy
Easy like the love we make (So Easy) Easy like a summer’s day (So Easy) Easy like a morning breeze (So Easy) Easy like you and me
I was going nowhere until you came along and brightened up my day But you were having a moment, somebody had done you wrong, there were tears streaming down your face And I remember so clearly just a few months on, I still think about that day How you did something to me, how it felt so wrong to let you walk away
And I’m not one to regret but I know I’m not ready yet to stand aside and watch you slowly slipping through my fingers baby
You got my heart on a string, yeah you know ya do If I ever see you again I’m just your toy on a string yeah you know it’s true And I’ll promise you everything
One day I thought I saw you, but it was just some girl, she had hair just like yours Going out of my mind, following ghosts down empty stairways and corridors
but you’re there behind my eyes when I can’t get to sleep at night Girl I’ve got to get you, girl I’ve got to get you in my life
You got my heart on a string, yeah you know ya do If I ever see you again I’m just your toy on a string yeah you know it’s true And I’ll promise you everything You held my heart on a string when I noticed you Like a flower abloom in the spring
You can’t deny it Don’t try to fight it When Serendipity comes calling for you When it comes knocking on your door
You got my heart on a string, yeah you know ya do If I ever see you again I’m just your toy on a string yeah you know it’s true And I’ll promise you everything You held my heart on a string when I noticed you Like a flower abloom in the spring I’ll be your toy on a string yes I promise you If I ever see you again
