Your expectations turn from grey to black

You have to get your independence back

Realisation subtle as a heart attack

It was not meant to be.

She wants to be a star and paint the town

That kind of person throws themselves around

And in your heart, I know you want to settle down

It was not meant to be

It was not meant to be

It was not meant for you

And you are no island.

And there's significan'tly less to prove

And there's significan'tly more to lose

Walking a mile in someone else's shoes.

Your expectations turn from grey to black

You have to get your independence back

Realisation subtle as a heart attack.

It was not meant to be

It was not meant to be

It was not meant for you

And you are no island

And you are no island

And you are no island.
