I am an island underneath the setting sun in an ocean that is churning
For all I know there might be nobody nearby still the world it keeps on turning
And when that sun goes down it gets brighter in my heart somehow
I don't know why this is but it's what I want to know
Sometimes we start over and go solo
We're looking for that summer home beside the sea and for the future
Since I left you I'm a gold balloon that wanders high
I won't sing through rainbows and showers
Taking lovers just might keep my tears at bay but they can break at any hour
By candle-light you seem to deepen in your mysteries
Confusing forces move at the tides of these seas
Sometimes we start over and go solo
We're looking for the ones we've hurt just to forgive us in the future
Sometimes we start over and go solo
No metaphors are needed from this time onwards in the song
And when the sun goes down it gets brighter in my heart somehow
I don't know why this is but it's what I'd like to know
Sometimes we start over and go solo
We're looking for the ones we've hurt just to forgive us in the future
Sometimes we start over and just go solo
No metaphors are needed from this time onwards in this song
For all I know there might be nobody nearby still the world it keeps on turning
And when that sun goes down it gets brighter in my heart somehow
I don't know why this is but it's what I want to know
Sometimes we start over and go solo
We're looking for that summer home beside the sea and for the future
Since I left you I'm a gold balloon that wanders high
I won't sing through rainbows and showers
Taking lovers just might keep my tears at bay but they can break at any hour
By candle-light you seem to deepen in your mysteries
Confusing forces move at the tides of these seas
Sometimes we start over and go solo
We're looking for the ones we've hurt just to forgive us in the future
Sometimes we start over and go solo
No metaphors are needed from this time onwards in the song
And when the sun goes down it gets brighter in my heart somehow
I don't know why this is but it's what I'd like to know
Sometimes we start over and go solo
We're looking for the ones we've hurt just to forgive us in the future
Sometimes we start over and just go solo
No metaphors are needed from this time onwards in this song
