I know that absence might
Make the heart grow fonder
Or is it 'out of sight'
Out of mind' I wonder

And do you yearn for me
When the nights grow cold
'til death us do part
To have and to hold
I wanna give you my love, my love, my love!

But is it just me or am I all on my own again?
You're up at John O Groats, I'm down in Land's End
On you I depend!

I see your face when I close my eyes,
And there ain't no place
Like between your thighs
Don't want a life alone
All by myself
To honor and trust
In sickness and health
I wanna give you my love, my love, my love!

But is it just me or am I all on my own again?
You're in the Taj Mahal, I'm outside Big Ben
It's driving me round the bend!

Forever and ever
And ever, amen
I wanna give you my love, my love, my love,

Is it just me or am I all on my own again?
Is it just me or am I all on my own again?
You're in the Vatican, I'm in the Yemen
And it feels like the end,
The end!
