Glazed eyes turning away
Is it true you're seeing him again?
E-mail swiftly erased
Is it true you're seeing him again?

I caught you on the telephone
You've no answer to my question
Who's on the line?

You were crying on the telephone
Is it me, is it him?

Show me how to survive
Can't afford to divorce
I'm so scared, show me how
To accept we've run our course

Loved you the best of our years
We'll survived the sting in this tale
Last call, numbers erased
We'll survived the sting in this tale

After dark when you got home
You were walking, said you're walking down by the pier
Feel that I'm the last to know
There's the children, not the children

Show me how to survive
Can't afford to divorce
I'm so scared, show me how
To accept we've run our course

Blindfold my love
Adjust to betrayal of trust
Blindfold my love
Adjust to betrayal of trust

You left a message on my answer phone
There is something you can't tell me
Don't have much time

Test came back and doctor said
There's no answer to the cancer
Don't have much time
