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'll damn well 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 this- Sooooong Oooooooh Aaaaaaah Oooooooh 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
