Dry Land Lyrics - Marillion

In all the time that I've known you 

You've been so edgy and nervous 

I never wanted to own you 

I was aware of the danger 

Of making a bid for your favours 

You're such a natural stranger 

I made excuses and ran 

You're an island 

But I can't leave you all out at sea 

You're so violent with your silence 

You're an island 

I can't sleep 

Won't you speak to me 

I'm on dry land 

Won't you help me please 

In all the time that I've known you 

There has been something between us 

I don't hink it's my imagination 

I felt like I couldn't touch you 

But I had the feeling you'd love to 

Tell me the truth if you could do 

I made excuses and ran
