When it happens
  You'll feel like an islander
  You'll see ships and they'll be reminders
  That you're on an island
  I'm on an island
    The chances are there's a reason we've been left here
  But I'm not disappointed
  The chances are there's a reason we've been left
  The chances are, the chances are
    You can't contact, you can't contact
  You can't cope without the contact
    As it happens
  There's a city in sight
  You're getting confused by local lamplight
  By local lamplight
  Don't buy local lamplights
    The chances are there's a reason we've been left here
  But I'm not disappointed
  The chances are there's a reason we've been left here
  The chances are, the chances are
    You can't contact, you can't contact
  You can't cope without the contact
    But what a situation to be in
  You and me are keeping in time with my ideas
  Keeping in time with my ideas
  You can't stop keeping in time
    You can't contact, you can't contact
  You can't cope without the contact
