There's no such place as Russia

Yet another bitter-sweet, over the shoulder look at how a relationship went wrong. The analogy here is the collapse of communism, a bit over the top you may think, but quite plausible after 2 bottles of vino tinto.

Since I tore up your letter
About you and your new lover
No tears have drowned my eyes
We said our goodbyes and little white lies
Now I realise

That there's no such place as Russia
Or America or Africa
Or Austria or Australia or Canada or Cambodia
And there's no place like your love
No there's no place quite like your love

In the time since you went away
So many other things have changed
Nothing stays the same
That's the name of the game, no-one's to blame
And ain't it a shame

That there's no such place as Russia
Or Cuba or China
Or Zambia or Libya or India or Columbia
And there's no place like your love
No there's no place quite like your love

          Maybe it's the rainfall fallin' like a waterfall
          Maybe it's the autumn-fall approaching is the snowfall
          And as I sit here and recall, recallin' how in love we fall

That's why there's no such place as Russia
Or Liberia or Nigeria
Or Argentina or Yugoslavia or Czechoslovakia
And there's no place like your love
No there's no place quite like your love
