Well he was thailand based
She was an airforce wife
He used to fly weekends
It was the easy life
But then it turned around
And he began to change
She didn't wonder then
She didn't think it strange
But then he got a call
He had to leave that night
He couldn't say too much
But it would be alright
He didn't need to pack
They'd meet the next night
He had a job to do
Flying to cambodia

And as the nights passed by
She tried to trace the past
The way he used to look
The way he used to laugh
I guess she'll never know
What got inside his soul
She couldn't make it out
Just couldn't take it all
He had the saddest eyes
The girl had ever seen
He used to cry some nights
As though he lived a dream
Ans as she held him close
He used to search her face
As though she knew the truth
Lost inside cambodia

But then a call came through
They said he'd soon be home
She had to pack a case
And they would make a rendez-vous
But now a year has passed
And not a single word
And all the love she knew
Has disappeared out in the haze
Cambodia - don't cry now - no tears now

And now the years have passed
With not a single word
But there is only one thing left
I know for sure
She won't see his face again

View from a bridge, can't take anymore
View from a bridge, can't take anymore

I guess it all began about a year ago
Like a cheap love magazine
You know the kind you read about
And have to laugh
At the pages in between
Now i can't believe that fool inside is me
'cos i just can't face the world
I've grown to see

View from a bridge, can't take anymore
View from a bridge, can't take anymore

I saw you kissing her
I saw you making her
In the soft sheets in between
But when you turned around
I saw your eyes were fire
And you crashed out all my dreams

And like a fool i just stood there
And let it go
I should have fought right back
And let my feelings show

View from a bridge, can't take anymore
View from a bridge, can't take anymore

You sure as hell knew how
To make a fool out of me
Well you cut me down
For the things you want
And now it's killing me

I'll lay it on the line now
You're running out of time now

But then a voice said jump
And i just let go
And i'm floating out in space
But then i feel your arms
And i turn around
To a ghost without a face

And i just don't know
What's fact or fantasy
'cos when i look below the bridge
I see it's me

I was driving out to meet you that night
Getting reports on the weather
You were coming home, had caught the last flight
But we would soon be together
You'd been gone such a long time
When my radio gave the warning

Chorus:
Chaos at the airport tonight, something ain' t right
No-one can land in the weather
Planes are crashing out of control
And all in all i think you've lost him forever

Looking up i started searching the skies
Was he still up there above me
Was the man who'd waved a million goodbyes
Now just a stranger who loved me
But as i drove to the terminal sign
I heard a great loud explosion

Chorus

I ran so, so fast but if i could only reach you
But you're so far away, you're oh so far away
Landing lights approaching
Out from a sea of darkness
But you're so far away, you're oh so far away

Like a bird of death it hovered around
Until the wheels started turning
Then i saw the jets just touching the ground
And i could see it recurring
And as i looked for the last time
My radio gave the warning

Stand at the mirror and look at my face
See all the changes i know somethings wrong
But when i think back to the love that we had
I look for escape 'cos i know that it's gone

I always looked on the touch of our love
As a soft stream running over me
But i always knew there would be a way out
But for you, not for me
Just a felling

Now all i see is the trace of a smile
Memories forgotten a long time ago
Never believed i could see you this way
I don't know what changed you, i'll just never know

I used to dream there was someone around
Who was there just to watch over me
Out in the crowds there was someone around
Who was meant just for me

Friends say "impossible"
But i say it's got to be

Just a feeling

Repeat to fade

Darlin', can you come over
Can you come over
Meet me tonight

I've been sitting here alone
Looking down this telephone
Thinking things i'd really love to say to you
Oh, it's true
I can't get enough of how you love
That's the truth i swear to you

Can you come over
Can you come over - think of what we could do
If you decide to, if you're alive to
What i want from a guy like you

Darlin, can you come over
Can you come over - meet me tonight

Watching movies on tv
Never does a thing for me
I get bored just living here and hanging 'round
Toss a coin it's heads or tails
If i run a bath or do my nails
What's it really matter when i'm far away from you

If you come over
If you come over - i could be good for you
Wouldn't you please me
It could be easy
Just stay here for a night or two

Darlin', can you come over
Can you come over - meet me tonight

I'm the girl who waits for you
I'm the girl who needs you too
I'm the girl who wants you tonight

Darlin', can you come over
Can you come over
Meet me tonight
