Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Just a castaway, an island lost at sea
Another lonely day, there's no one here but me
More loneliness than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair
[Verse 2]
I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle
[Verse 3]
A year has passed since I wrote my note
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep us together
Love can mend your life but love can break your heart
[Verse 4]
I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle
[Verse 5]
I'm sending out an SOS
I'm sending out an SOS
I'm sending out an SOS
I'm sending out an SOS
[Verse 6]
I'm sending out an SOS
I'm sending out an SOS
I'm sending out an SOS
I'm sending out an SOS
