[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Just a castaway
An island lost at sea, oh
Another lonely day
With no one here but me, oh
More loneliness
Than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair, oh

[Chorus]
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
Message in a bottle, hey
My message in a bottle

[Verse 2]
A year has passed since I wrote my note
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

[Chorus]
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
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
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
Message in a bottle, yeah
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle, hey
Message in a bottle

[Bridge]
Sending out an SOS
(Sending out an SOS)
Sending out an SOS
(Sending out an SOS)
Sending out an SOS
(Sending out an SOS)
Sending out an SOS
(Sending out an SOS)

[Chorus]
Sending out
(Sending out an SOS)
(Sending out an SOS)
(Sending out an SOS)
(Sending out an SOS)
Sending out an SOS
Sending out an SOS
Sending out an SOS
Sending out an SOS
Sending out an SOS
Sending out an SOS
Sending out an SOS
Sending out an SOS (SOS)
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
