Everyday when I'm away I'm thinking of you, 
Everyone can carry on
Except for we two

And you know that our love 
And you know that I 
And you know that our love won't die
And it won't even show
And no-one will know
One little wave 
To say you'll behave 
It won't even show
How far love can go

Everyday when I'm away
And there's been a few
Every land I need a hand
To help me come through
And you know that our love
And you know that
And you know that our love won't die

And it won't even show
And no-one will know
One little wave
To say you'll behave
It won't even show
How far love can go

And you know that our love
And you know that I
And you know that our love won't die

And it won't even show
And no-one will know
One little wave
To say you'll behave
It won't even show
How far love can go
