(difford/tilbrook)
As much as I love you
As much as I care
I just cant pretend that
The problems 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 loves 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 youve been around
Our life still goes on but
It wont be the same
As when were 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 heavens above us
And hell is down below
Without a third rail to drive us
Well have no place to go
Theres a lump in my throat
Im choked as I say
Our love has reached twilight
Lets call it a day
We kiss on the platform
The doors slowly close
Like theatre curtains
Pulled after the show
We both know its over
And somehow weve failed
Loves going in circles
Without a third rail
