The Spice of Life - 2012 Remaster

Something has come between me and the world that I 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
