You are reliable as a painting in wave wet sand



I look in your eyes and I can't see a thing

That usually means attraction to me

I've read all the books about love I could find

And I've found not one, no, not one word 'bout mine



'Cause you are reliable as a painting in wave wet sand

You're coming and you're going: like the water you never end

'Cause you are reliable as a painting in wave wet sand

And I am just another piece of an island in reach for your hands



...feel my doubts when you are in my arms

Darling: if you know that it's love and not charm

You must tell me so or go elsewhere to hunt



'Cause you are reliable...

Your love...



I am just another piece of an island



I can't close my ears when I hear that you call

I don't want to fear every tear that could fall

I'll go on my own, and pass people with doubts

My goal is to find a piece of your love



Your love is - your love is like the water

You are like the water

You are like the water

You, you are my shore, and you know you are my shore
