BETWEEN US

Between the taxis and the trains
Between the boats and aeroplanes
Between the lanes of traffic
Any place at all I chance to be
You're always going my way
In my thoughts along the highway
To the carefree yesterdays we knew
The quiet nights of loving you
When love was king and master
Till one day when i was cast aside
And what we shared between us once
Sadly died

Between cafes and fancy drinks
Between the girls with phony winks
Between the clinks of glasses
Hazily my thoughts go back to you
My skin feels like it's crawling
As I strangely hear you calling me
And in the smokey room I see
A flash of all that used to be
A blinding tear starts flowing
Yes my love it's so hard going on
Cause what we had between us then
Now is gone

Between the parties and the cokes
Between the stories and the jokes
Between the smokes unending
I keep on pretending you are near
I'm lost in meditation
I don't hear the conversation - here
You're warmly in my arms and we're
The lovers of our yesteryear
I play the game so sadly
How gladly I'd give all I own
If what we had between us then
Lived again
