There are twelve hours, there's a day between us   You called to say you're sorry in your own way   There are oceans and waves and wires between us   And you called to say you're getting older      Sometimes, planes, they smash up in the sky   Sometimes, lonely hearts, they just get lonelier      How did you survive all those fires and floods?   How did you survive your insufferable friends?   It was the plough that broke the western plains   And it's just, my heart gets rejected by my veins      And sometimes, planes, they smash up in the sky   And sometimes, lonely hearts, they just get lonelier   And lonelier, and lonelier, and lonelier
