Standard (EADGBE)

As much as I love you

As much as I care

I just can't pretend that the problem's not there

We know the boundaries

 >From where we both stand

Our life has been happy without any pain

 But now I feel sorrow

 as friendship turns stale

 Our love's still on track but,

without a third rail

2nd Verse:

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

3rd Verse:

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
