(DiffordTilbrook)



As much as I love you

As much as I care

I just can't pretend that

The problem's not there

We know all the boundaries

From where we both stand

Our life has been happy

Without any plan

But now I feel sorrow

As friendship turns stale

Our love's still on track but

Without a third rail

The moon has come up now

The sun has gone down

A million or more times

Since you've been around

Our life still goes on but

It won't be the same

As when we're together

Love only knows pain

With words that are tender

Our love will prevail

But can our love go on

Without a third rail



White clouds appear like cotton wool

The wind bends trees to bow

As we farewell this love of ours

Like some old sacred cow

As sure as heaven's above us

And hell is down below

Without a third rail to drive us

We'll have no place to go



There's a lump in my throat

I'm choked as I say

Our love has reached twilight

Let's call it a day

We kiss on the platform

The doors slowly close

Like theatre curtains

Pulled after the show

We both know it's over

And somehow we've failed

Love's going in circles

Without a third rail
