Sometimes (I Can Be an Island)
Sometimes I can be an island
When the tide comes in and the sirens sing
A song of sadness, call it madness
Sometimes I can be a highway
That everyone will ride when the mile is wide
But a road well-run is good for no one
They might see a drowning man
Hopelessly doing what he can and he'll be fine sometimes
Sometimes I can be a painter
When the light is right with a beautiful sight
And life has colour, bright and fuller
Sometimes I can be a shelter
When the rain is hard and home is far
If you need a bed to lie on, an arm to cry on
They might see a drowning man
Hopelessly doing what he can
Lost at sea, beneath a wave
You must see the life to save and throw a line every time
When the tide comes in and the sirens sing
A song of sadness, call it madness
Sometimes I can be a highway
That everyone will ride when the mile is wide
But a road well-run is good for no one
They might see a drowning man
Hopelessly doing what he can and he'll be fine sometimes
Sometimes I can be a painter
When the light is right with a beautiful sight
And life has colour, bright and fuller
Sometimes I can be a shelter
When the rain is hard and home is far
If you need a bed to lie on, an arm to cry on
They might see a drowning man
Hopelessly doing what he can
Lost at sea, beneath a wave
You must see the life to save and throw a line every time
