I Am Not an Island

You walk a step ahead
Won't let me see your eyes
Don't trust me with your tears
That's probably wise

I'm trying to reach up to you
I end up stumbling like a child
I try to find the words
And now and then
I draw that smile
I hold on...

Everything I do
Everything I say
Everywhere I go it's always been the same
You'll be right behind or standing in my way
I am not an island
I am not an island anymore
You're wasting time
Saving me

Now you walk two steps behind
I still can't see your eyes
If I turn around
You'll cut right through me

And softly by my side
You fall asleep
I wait until I'm sure
You're breathing really slow as I get up
And gently close the door
Oh hold on

Everything I do
Everything I say
Everywhere I go it's always been the same
You'll be right behind or standing in my way
I am not an island
I am not an island anymore
You're wasting time
Changing me

Everything I do
Everything I say
I did it all for you it's always been the same
You'll be right behind or standing in my way
I am not an island
I am not an island anymore
