staring at the phone all day won´t make you call me
and sittin here plain´ it off won´t change a thing
writin love letters that i´d never dare to send you won´t tell you
how far deep i´ve gone since i met you

[chorus]
i feel i´m stranded on an island
and you´re miles away from here
i try to make waves but the ocean´s quiet
can anybody hear
my sos

closing my eyes to the truth won´t persuade you
and letting you hold my heart will only cause more pain
whispering prayers in the wind cannot save me
cause i´m still holding on to what´s been gone

[chorus 2x]
