Lyrics

My life is extraordinary bare I fought the fear and chased the pain My life doesn't need to be explained I chose to walk the line as one Sometimes When I live upon my island Cut off from emotion and it's pain That's when I'm tempted by the waters The waters that can take me far away So, I'll just keep on walking down this open road Hoping someone somewhere needs me So, I'll just keep on walking down this open road Talking to the man who knows me Yes, he knows me The man is me My life was once full of people's faces Brought to me by love, which isn't strange Oh, my life had the goodness of blue waters A day's a day, for all I used to say Sometimes I can sit and cry my heart out Drowning in my autocratic ways Oh, that's when I am tempted by the waters The waters that can take me far away So, I'll just keep on walking down this open road Hoping someone somewhere needs me So, I'll just keep on walking down this open road Talking to the man, who knows me Yes, he knows me The man is me My life, is now full of people's faces Within the light of change, I pulled away Oh, my life Shows that no man is an island I've exchanged the piece of life I cut away Now you won't see me walking down that open road I've found someone now who needs me No, you won't see me walking down that open road I've found at last the man who knows me Yes, he knows me And the man was me The man was me
