I know that someday I’ll be yours

I ain’t got nowhere else to be

On a distant island’s sandy shore

I’m already out to sea



The thought of us is all I see

I want it to be all I know

But it’s not yet reality

How much further do I go?



And it’s too late to fool ourselves

That there’s nothing there

And it’s too late to pretend that we don’t care

And I don’t want to wait

Until it’s too late



If love equals frustration

Then it’s frustration that I crave

But when this is an obsession

I just want to be saved

Now I know that if I drown

Only I can be blamed

For I feel my body dragging down

And my ship’s sailing away



And it’s too late to fool ourselves

That there’s nothing there

And it’s too late to pretend that we don’t care

And I don’t want to wait

Until it’s too late
