[Verse 1]
I am just a satellite, high above the atmosphere
Bouncing every thing you say to someone who is meant to hear
Sometimes on a rainy day, I lie in bed and dream of you
So blame it on the satellite, when your message can’t get through
[Verse 2]
I am just a tiny wave, a minor ripple out at sea
Moving slowly towards the shore, burdened with uncertainty
I’m gaining power, losing speed, wondering as I near your door
Will you hold it open for the tidal wave approaching shore?
[Bridge]
You’ve become an island in the hazy world surrounding me
Offering a vast reward each time I safely cross the sea
All too often I become lost in the fog and haze
Clinging still, against my will, to promises of clearer days
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
You’ve become an island in the hazy world surrounding me
Offering a vast reward each time I safely cross the sea
All too often I become lost in the fog and haze
Clinging still, against my will, to promises of clearer days
[Verse 3]
I am just a raindrop that accelerates without control
Losing bits and pieces in descent ’til I’m no longer whole
I am just another shooting star above that you might see
Until I have your full attention I’ll be anything but me
[Outro]
(Anything but me, anything but me)
Anything but me
(Anything but me, anything but me)
Anything but me
(Anything but me, anything but me)
Anything but me
(Anything but me, anything but me)
Anything but me
