Can you remember that summer night
When you softly called my name
You said: "Come if you can
I’m feeling so bad"
Drove all night to be with you again
Your husband was twenty light years from home
Making money to buy one more car
His letters, himself, distant and cold
My passion and pride, like a star
We laughed and we cried side by side,
Breath to breath, heart by heart, hand in hand
It's only the love
Was never so close
As the waves left the tears on the side
Throw me a lifeline
Draw me a heartline
Can you remember how we were before?
Throw me a lifeline
Draw me a heartline
Once in a lifetime, long, long time ago
Three nuns on the beach
Watched the sun going down
Your eyes can drift on the wave
Besides you, between you
Deep in your heart
Falling heart to the end of the day
We laughed and we cried side by side,
Breath to breath, heart by heart, hand in hand
You told me the love
Was never so close
As the waves left the tears on the side
Throw me a lifeline
Draw me a heartline
Can you remember how we were before?
Throw me a lifeline
Draw me a heartline
Once in a lifetime, long, long time ago
Can you remember that summer night
When you softly called my name
You said: "Come if you can
I’m feeling so bad"
I came but I just couldn’t stay
I don’t really know how it began
And I don’t know why it died
Love was coming
Love was going
I don’t sleep alone
But something still hurts there inside
