It started long ago, you have to understand   We thought we'd make a life, we thought we had a plan   We built it like a house and filled it up with kids   The only trouble is   I won't be back again      Cause something in my heart has taken to the wind   And nothing I can do will bring it back again   Nobody ever wins the war in the gulf between us   Something in my heart no longer could survive   Those battles in the day, the quiet in the night   I lost the will to fight the war in the gulf between us      And then it all began, the quarrels and the moods   I tip-toed all around you; you danced around me too   And somewhere in between we found the time for love   The only trouble is   It never was enough      Cause something in my heart has taken to the wind   And nothing I can do will bring it back again   Nobody ever wins the war in the gulf between us   Something in my heart no longer could survive   Those battles in the day, the quiet in the night   I lost the will to fight the war in the gulf between us      What was the sense in keeping alive   Something that never made us satisfied   Sometimes it's better to get on with your life   I don't believe in hurting each other all the time      Now after all the lawyers have eaten our remains   And after all the nights have swallowed up the pain   Then maybe we will meet, we'll find a neutral place   The only trouble is   What will we have to say?       Well something in our hearts will have to try and give   And something in our hearts will have to learn to live   Together and apart without another war between us
