Alcatraz |
| Hello its been awhile |
| You know I wished you well |
| I wrote a song for you |
| So break the chains and damn the cell |
| You wrote love, love is everywhere |
| In the notebook you gave me |
| You made a list of joys for me and you put your name first |
| How? |
| How? |
| How is no man is an island? |
| Well with California sliding off the chart |
| Pack your suitcase up and make a brand new start |
| California sliding off the map |
| Hurry now, can you make it home, can you make it back? |
| If nothing’s built to last, why don’t you, just put me out on Alcatraz? |
| I’ve been accused a time or two |
| Of having sentimental attributes Of hanging on too long |
| When nostalgia is a vice that captures a warm place in time |
| And like a cool fog rolling in, clouding up the heart and minds |
| Whoa! |
| Whoa! |
| Oh well no man’s an island |
| Well with California sliding off the chart |
| Pack your suitcase up and make a brand new start |
| California sliding off the map |
| Hurry now, can you make it home, can you make it back? |
| If nothing’s built to last, why don’t you, just put me out on Alcatraz? |
| And every tear in your past, the reservoir you blink away |
| Washing down all the hilly streets, out into the bay |
| No man is an island, but each one does his time |
| To see if he can tough it out, in a prison of the mind |
| And like a note to a lover |
| Through the blue lines you can see |
| A chance to stay a prisoner, or an easy way to break yourself free! |
| Break yourself free! |
| Whoa California sliding off the chart |
| Pack your suitcase baby open up your heart |
| California sliding off the map |
| Hurry now, can you make it home, can you make it back? |
| If nothing’s built to last, and why don’t you, just put me out on Alcatraz? |
