In a single moment it was gone
I was in the back and you were driving
At first, I thought it vital that we won
Then I was relieved to be surviving
I always knew that getting there was fun
I wish it wasn't ruined by arriving
Oh, the splendid life, yes it's over
Oh, life in clover, that's all gone
Oh, the splendid life, yes it's over
What went wrong?

Your tracks they led me half way round the world
You left a trail of paperbacks behind you
You took some yarn and spun it through the maze
Only I was bothered to come find you
No matter all the bridges that you burned
You'll always have me here to remind you
Oh, the splendid life, yes it's over
Oh, life in clover, that's all gone
Oh, the splendid life, yes it's over
What went wrong?

Sometimes you'll kid yourself
Into believing it didn't exist
But it did, but it did

The verdict's in and there'll be no appeal
Check the papers, it's not April Fool's Day
I heard the crash before I heard the squeal
Now everywhere is turning into Safeway
If you don't believe that this is real
Just read the memo waiting in your in-tray
Oh, the splendid life, yes it's over
Oh, life in clover, that's all gone
Oh, the splendid life, yes it's over
What went wrong?
