Lyrics
Castaway
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I tried to fly but I ran out of sky
And I fell straight down into the ocean
Then I rode a wave back to shore
And I stayed for awhile
Till I got tired of being lonely
Why do I always try
To run away from you
Please don't say a castaway
Is what I was born to do
I guess I'll always be lost without you
If I got smart, I'd trade my wings for your heart
And I'd promise to never chase the wind
I look up at the moon, but all I see is you
And I'm reminded I need your love again
Why do I always try
To run away from you
Please don't say a castaway
Is what I was born to do
I guess I'll always be lost without you
I'd be naive to ever think
You're at your door waiting for me
So why do I always try
To run away from you
Please don't say a castaway
Is what I was born to do
I guess I'll always be lost without you
