The day before I left
Started missing you like hell like hell
Now I'm frustrated everyday
That you live so far away
We could have a postcard relationship
We could build a castle in the air, it isn't fair
Marie Marie you live so far away from me
And it's so hard to be happy when you're in another country

Guess I could try and steal a plane
And fly over every day day
Or how about we meet just halfway
And have an endless holiday a holiday
Marie Marie you live so far away from me
And it's so hard to be happy when you're in another country

The tyranny of distance stands over our broken hearts
The tyranny of distance stands over our broken hearts

Marie Marie you live so far away from me
And it's so hard to be happy when you're in another country
Marie Marie you live so far away from me
And it's so hard to be happy when you're in another country

The tyranny of distance stands over our broken hearts
The tyranny of distance stands over our broken hearts
The tyranny of distance stands over our broken hearts
The tyranny of distance stands over our broken hearts
