Standard (EADGBE)

I am an island underneath the setting sun

In an ocean that is churning

For all I know there might be nobody nearby

Still, the world, it keeps on turning

And when that sun goes down

 It gets brighter in my heart somehow

I don't know why this is

 But it's what I want to know

Sometimes we start over

And go solo

 We're looking for

 That summer home

 Beside the sea

 And for the future

Since I left you I'm a gold balloon that wanders high

I won't sing through rainbows and showers

Taking lovers just might keep my tears at bay

But the dam will break at any hour

By candle-light you seem

To deepen in your mysteries

Confusing forces move

At the tides of these seas

Sometimes we start over

And go solo

We're looking for

The ones we've hurt

Just to forgive us

In the future

Sometimes we start over

And go solo

No metaphors

Are needed from

 This time onwards

In the-

Sooooome

Oooooooh

And when the sun goes down

It gets brighter in my heart somehow

I don't know why this is

But it's what I'd like to know

Sometimes we start over

And go solo

We're looking for

The ones we've hurt

Just to forgive us

In the future

Sometimes we start over

And just go solo

No metaphors

Are needed from

This time onwards
