(Bryan Ferry)
Intro: D#m7 

D#m          D    C#
So I send an SOS
      Cm          B
Semaphore myself
          Bbm          D#m  F# Bbm
Catch me falling finally

Through the air and underground
Everywhere this sound
Screams and whisper
I can't breathe

I feel it in my bones
Though I know I'm not alone
You're spinning far too far from me

So cruel to be so kind
Now I know I'll always find
This island earth a mystery

Solo: as version  |x2

As I stumble through the dark
Dream lovers dream apart
Starry eyed a vision rushes in

Do I wonder or care
My spirit's bleeding God knows where
A never ending stream

I tried to love, tried to find
My soul in shadows running blind
And restless as the sea

Via sidewalks through the haze
Wandering as in a maze
Lost in number time and space

So near and yet so far
Castaway as strangers are
This island earth
And you and me

as verse  |x4
