[00:16.850]	Lately I've become such a postcard lover
[00:26.020]	Especially of the ones I get from you
[00:34.160]	And if, these days, they don't come quite so often
[00:42.320]	They charm me more than ever when they do
[00:50.620]	I picture you beside a sunny harbour
[01:00.370]	Waiting for a boat to come to shore
[01:08.820]	Your finger lingering on a postcard spinner
[01:16.890]	In the doorway of a tacky tourist store
[01:25.420]	Or whiling away those warm enchanted evenings
[01:34.310]	Writing in the corner of some café
[01:42.860]	Those careless collections of words and feelings
[01:50.680]	You happened to feel like sending me that day
[01:59.190]	I save every card, although it gets hard
[02:07.730]	To keep some order amongst those random souvenirs
[02:16.460]	It amazes me some, the way we've become
[02:24.710]	Such postcard lovers, divided by the oceans
[02:34.530]	And the years
[03:41.600]	Have you found yourself some wonderful companion
[03:49.000]	And all the happiness that heaven allows
[03:57.810]	Or are you homesick for that grey and drizzly nation
[04:05.950]	As you walk home amidst the evening crowds
[04:13.710]	The postcards I send to you from my own travels
[04:22.890]	Can hardly match the ones you send to me
[04:31.000]	But at least I give you news of what I'm doing
[04:39.630]	And open my heart to you occasionally
[04:48.030]	Looking back on all the cards you've written
[04:56.520]	From every far-flung corner beneath the sun
[05:04.490]	They say so little of the life you're really leading
[05:13.040]	So little of the person you've become
[05:21.770]	But they still bear the traces of all the special places
[05:30.200]	We've kept deep within our hopes and in our fears
[05:38.390]	It amazes me some, the way we've become
[05:46.410]	Such postcard lovers, divided by the oceans
[05:55.310]	And the years

[00:16.850]	Lately I' ve become such a postcard lover
[00:26.020]	Especially of the ones I get from you
