He's a rubber man with elastic plans
Conjured up in dreams from a distant land.
Like a loose strand doing what he can
In a tangled world, trying to understand.
Oh, my love stretches on like the sea
But now we are drowning in our common history.
She's a soldier on a foreign field
But now we're older I don't know how to feel.
She's my sister and I'd do anything
If I could show her what she means to me.
Oh, my love stretches on like the sea
But now we are drowning in our common history.
Thin hope, I cling to it like plastic wrap.
Everything will be easier now.
Hope that you'll come back to the one,
The one I knew before I lose hope.
Cling to it like plastic wrap,
Everything will be easier now.
Hope that you'll come back to us like
The one I knew.
