The Spice Of Life |
something has come between me and the world that knew |
what I thought would last is falling apart in the face of something new |
how can I explain that I had no choice |
the sound of the waves fills her ears and drowns out my voice |
and I’m just too far away for her to believe what I say |
she couldn’t hear me, she wouldn’t listen anyway |
how can I write a letter the post is so slow |
if I’m to disappoint her then that’s something she ought to know |
I can just hear her voice fall as I wait here alone |
how can so much harm be done by just two minutes spent on the phone |
you say that things will get better |
but she would hate me if I let her |
and she reads so much in every word that I say |
I thought that being apart would just bring us some variety |
but after some time it seems clear that she’s changed in a different way from |
me and I would like to shout at someone but no one’s to blame |
it’s just her it’s just me and everything that is just not the same |
sometimes I would turn back the clock |
and recapture all that we’ve lost |
but I couldn’t give up all that we have today |
