I
On my own again on a desert island
So far away from home
Once again I find all around the silence
With you still on my mind
II
I look but I can't see
Listen but I don't hear
Shadows follow me
So hard I tried to hide
My feelings deep inside
But still I reached for you
Chorus
So I want you to stay here with me
But what can I say I hope & I pray
That you'll return to me Oh can't you stay
Instrumental
Chorus
I love you I need you
But what can I say I hope & I pray
That you'll return to me
& always love me
I need you
But what can I say I hope & I pray
That you'll return to me
Instrumental
Repeat 1st stanza
On my own again
