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
