lyrics

So you got the message today
The one that said that I’m walking away
Well you are a coward and you are a liar
And once upon a time you set my heart on fire

So I called up the fire brigade
And I got them to put out the love that we made
And then I called the policeman
And I got him to hold you back while away I ran

*I will not be fooled by the pull of flesh no
I will not be fooled by your innocence
I will not be fooled by your sweet caress
I will not be fooled cause...

You’re not my island
You’re not my home
And just like all the others
You just sink into the sea
You’re not my island and
You’re not my home, so go

Yeah I was the one on the side of the sidewalk
And I was the one on the side of the stage
Oh well I was the one to walk around and around in a daze
But you were the one to blame*

Well I was tryin’ to climb upon your shore
But the ground was shakin’ and you closed the door
So I was left in the sea to drown
Oh, on a great sailing ship by myself
Going down, down, down

Oh you’re not my island, you’re not my home
And just like all the others
You just sink into the sea
You’re not my island
You’re not my home, so go, just go

You’re not my island, you’re not my home
You’re not my island and you’re not my home oh
And even though I thought you were
You're not, so go, just go
