Just a castaway 
An island lost at sea 
Another lonely day 
With no one here but me 
More loneliness 
Than any man could bear 
Rescue me before I fall into despair

I hope that someone gets my 
(3) Message in a bottle (4)

But I should have known this right from the start 
Only hope can keep me together 
Love can mend your life 
But love can break your heart

I'll send an SOS to the world 
I hope that someone gets my 
I hope that someone gets my 
I hope that someone gets my

(1) Walked out this morning 
Don't believe what I saw 
A hundred billion bottles 
Washed up on the shore 
Seems I'm not alone at being alone 
A hundred billion castaways 
Looking for a home 
(2) I'll send an SOS to the world 
I'll send an SOS to the world 
I hope that someone gets my 
I hope that someone gets my 
I hope that someone gets my 
(3) Message in a bottle (4) 
 
Sending out an SOS 
Sending out an SOS 
(5) I'm sending out an SOS 
Sending out an SOS 
Sending out an SOS 
Sending out an SOS 
Sending out an SOS
