every woman, every man

if they could see you right now

and know where you came from

lonely one

don't cry now

now you're really someone

that puts lines on your face

that's out of place

you really got what you wanted

you really got where you wanted to be

you can't live this way forever

like an island made of sand

'cause your heart gets worn away

we all need to be together

though we find it hard to say

every woman

every man

you walk a crooked road

you can't look back and see

how short your memory

there you go

only fooling yourself

someone's going to get hurt

you won't be the first

you really got what you wanted

you really got where you wanted to be

you can't live this way forever

like an island made of sand

'cause your heart gets worn away

we all need to be together

though we find it hard to say

every woman

every man

you'll have to take it on your own

when you wake up to find that everything's gone

you can't live this way forever

like an island made of sand

'cause your heart gets worn away

we all need to be together

though we find it hard to say

every woman

every man
