Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We're all lookin' for a message here, a little wisdom on a souvenir
Another bottle with an SOS, throw it in the water and pray for the best
There ain't a compass or a northern star that ever really tells us where we are
We're just a shore runnin' out of sand and reachin' for a hand
[Verse 2]
Every heart is an island but no one's alone
Shipwrecked in a high-wind, tryin' to find our way home
And every tear is an ocean, we're all brothers in a storm
And we're tryin' to survive it, lookin' for dry land
Every heart is an island
[Verse 3]
Silver lining's kind hard to find when the world stops at the horizon line
There ain't a harbor that you recognize, it's hard to make a wish in an empty sky
Boardwalks are just nails and woods, they're pretty in a picture when times are good
Cars and boats are just on loan, a house is just sticks and stones
[Verse 4]
But every heart is an island and no one's alone
Shipwrecked in a high-wind, tryin' to find our way home
And every tear is an ocean, we're all brothers in a storm
And we're tryin' to survive it, lookin' for dry land
Every heart is an island
[Verse 5]
Every heart is an island and no one's alone
Shipwrecked in a high-wind, tryin' to find our way home
And every tear is an ocean, we're all brothers in a storm
And we're tryin' to survive it, lookin' for dry land
Every heart is an island
Every heart is an island
