Young hearts on Paradise Street, tumble down like poetry
Oh my I've got to fly, reach up and touch the sky
Up and down with the party clowns
Ballroom dancing in sequined gowns
I get so confused searching for you babe
How come you keep walking off that way
Little darling this is the end
I needed you like oxygen
I am an island, some sucker scrawled
I am an island on a city wall
Broadway walk the length and breadth
I think I'm smoking myself to death
You're bad for me, and bad for the soul
I think I'm losing my self control
I've got nothing but vacancy
Crawling after you on my hands and knees
I'm a coal car on a downhill track
I don't know what I'll do if you don't come back
Little darling, this is the end
I needed you like oxygen
I am an island, some sucker scrawled
I am an island, on a city wall
