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 candlelight you seem
To deepen in your mysteries
Confusing forces a pool
Let me 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, go solo
No metaphors are needed from
This time onwards in this song
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
Yeah, 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, just go solo
No metaphors are needed from
This time onwards in this song
