Text Challenge: Message in a Bottle by The Police (Suggested by moderncolor)
Just a castaway,
an island lost at sea.
Another lonely day.
No one here but me.
More loneliness
than any man could bear.
Rescue me before I fall into despair.
CHORUS
I'll send an SOS to the world.
I'll send an SOS to the world.
I hope that someone gets my,
I hope that someone gets my,
I hope that someone gets my
message in a bottle.
A year has passed since I wrote my note.
But I should have known this right from the start:
Only hope can keep me together.
Love can mend your life
but love can break your heart.
CHORUS
Walked out this morning.
Don't believe what I saw.
A hundred billion bottles
washed up on the shore.
Seems I'm not alone in being alone.
A hundred billion castaways
looking for a home.
CHORUS
Sending out an SOS...
