This Island Earth Lyrics - The Bride Stripped Bare - Bryan Ferry

So I send an SOS 

Semaphore myself 

Catch me falling finally 

Through the air and underground 

Everywhere this sound 

Screams whisper "I can't breathe" 

I feel it in my bones 

Though I know I'm not alone 

You're spinning far too far from me 

So cruel to be so kind 

Now I know I'll always find 

This island earth 

A mystery 

As I stumble through the dark 

Dream lovers dream apart 

Starry eyed a vision rushes in 

Do I wonder or care 

My spirit's bleeding god knows where 

A never ending stream 

I tried to love, tried to find 

My soul in shadows running blind 

And restless as the sea 

Via sidewalks through the haze 

Wandering as in a maze 

Lost in number time and space 

So near and yet so far 

Castaway as strangers are 

This island earth 

And you and me
