If they could see you right now
And know where you came from
Lonely one
Don't cry now, now you're really someone
That puts lines on your face
That's out of place
You really got what you wanted
You really got where you wanted to be
You can't live this way forever
Like an island made of sand
'Cause your heart gets worn away
We all need to be together
Though we find it hard to say
Every woman, every man
You walk a crooked road
You can't look back and see
How short your memory
There you go, only fooling yourself
Someone's going to get hurt
You won't be the first
You really got what you wanted
You really got where you wanted to be
You can't live this way forever
Like an island made of sand
'Cause your heart gets worn away
We all need to be together
Though we find it hard to say
Every woman, every man
You'll have to take it on your own
When you wake up to find that everything's gone
You can't live this way forever
Like an island made of sand
'Cause your heart gets worn away
We all need to be together
Though we find it hard to say
Every woman, every man
