Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can't take all the blame now can I?
It takes more than one to lose
Such a fine line that
Lies between and holds together
[Verse 2]
What did the night do to the time?
[Verse 3]
Oh and I'm finding out the hard way
It's gonna take some tears
A little bit of heartache
We're like islands in the stream
Watching all our dreams start to fade
Fading away
[Verse 4]
A moment gone is gone forever
It's like water through your hands
And you spin the wheel of misfortune
Watching it turn live and you learn
[Verse 5]
Oh and I'm finding out the hard way
It's gonna take some tears
A little bit of heartache
We're like islands in the stream
Watching all our dreams start to fade
Fading away
[Verse 6]
I keep reaching out
Come up empty handed
When did I let you down?
Or did I leave you stranded?
[Verse 7]
Oh and I'm finding out the hard way
It's gonna take some tears
A little bit of heartache
We're like islands in the stream
Watching all our dreams start to fade
[Verse 8]
Oh and I'm finding out the hard way
It's gonna take some tears
A little bit of heartache
We're like islands in the stream
Watching all our dreams start to fade
Fading away
[Verse 9]
Start to fade
Fading away
Start to fade
Fading away
Fade away
