Take this lie off my shoulder
I rarely hold back,
But now a little bit older
Please forgive me if I
Won't lend a hand this time (hold off, hold off, hold off)
I'm on my island vice (hold off, hold off, hold off)
Not forever, because the tide
Turns
Taking this time,
I'm trying to feel sober
A feeling that I'm missing
Over and over
Please remember when I
Go lend a hand this time (hold off, hold off, hold off)
I'm on my island vice (hold off, hold off, hold off)
Not forever, because the tide,
Turns
(Hold off) In a moment we changed forever
(Hold off) Did you notice the breeze, or a temperature rise?
Hold off, hold off, hold off
Send a postcard, write a letter
(Hold off) For some token gesture
Hold off, hold off, hold off
Won't lend a hand this time (hold off, hold off, hold off)
I'm on my island vice (hold off, hold off, hold off)
Won't lend a hand this time (hold off, hold off, hold off)
I'm on my island vice (hold off, hold off, hold off)
