Maybe I love my harbor too much to be alive
Maybe I should go on out and be seen some more
"You never come around to visit anymore
We never see you on the town
being like the other gals
Are you too damn good
to hang around with all the other normal ones?
Wanna tell me just what's so special 'bout you,
that you should keep yourself a secret?"
There you walk right by
Can't you see I'm dying?
Oh so cruel, just passing me by
Can't you see I'm dying?
Can you not feel me dying?
And I am safer than I've ever been
on this solitary rock of mine
I'm waiting for my ship
for my ship to come in
and I won't leave before it does
I can only hope that when it comes
the captain lets me on to sail the blue
Maybe I need to feel some sunshine here in my heart
Maybe I could learn to control my fears long enough
"You never come around to visit like before
Don't you like us anymore
or have you found a better gig?
Are you too damn good
to give anyone you meet the time of day?
Whoever said you were allowed to go through life
not playing nice with the other kids?"
There you walk right by
Can't you see I'm dying?
Oh so cruel, just passing me by
Can't you see I'm dying?
Can you not feel me dying?
But there is one thing that I know
I won't come out on my own
So pull or let me go
and I'll stay safe within this, my tropical cocoon
All I ask is when I'm dead and gone
tell Oxy and Eze I hid too long
No woman is an island
No woman is an island
No woman is an island
I've never been an island
I've never been an island
