'Communication' a love story told in the lyrics of a song

It's been going on
for quite some while
we're not getting anywhere
it's only a waste of time
I can feel communication
getting rather thin
I can hear it break
while we're talking

It's a hard bit to chew
I know I have to
something I can't explain
emptiness crept in your voice
is just what I can't take
it used to be so different
full of laughter an' life

it's come to announcing
a straight statement
it's geting me deep inside
your hurting with those
irritated sighs
which can't hide
your interest is gone
out of sight

and I can hear it happen
line of communication
is getting rather thin
I try to keep it open
but I can hear it break
while we're talking

I can feel those
cold words touchin' me
its chill's surrounding me
with difficulty I anwer
it's not an easy one last call
so much there was to say
just hopin' to breath life
in to this conversation again

and I can hear it happen
line of communication''s
getting rather thin
I try to keep it open
but I can hear it break
while we're talking

we've come to the end
of a long hard struggle
where we took so many falls
I lost count
always hopin' to pull us together
never did I let my spirit down
never thought it was the last round
but by now I'm convinced
that last fall did us in

and I can hear it happen
line of communication's
getting rather thin
I try to keep it open
but I can hear it break
while we're talking
I can hear it fade
'till there's only the wind
