Getting Nowhere

Monarchs and heads of state rarely stay up late
That's why they're healthy, wealthy and wise
Are you surprised again
At my getting off the point again?

Well, we can play this tired game all night
Or fight until we're tired ourselves
And morning lights the boards we're treading
Where is this heading?

It's too late
We're getting nowhere at all
We went through it all, getting nowhere
Where did it all go?

Kings, queens and potentates don't want soulmates
They understand fate would never allow
Such unions to last
I am now part of Her Majesty's past

And I have never been happier
Although I must admit
I've never been happy at all

It's too late
We're getting nowhere at all
Oh, but I loved you so
We went through it all
Getting nowhere
Where did it all go?

Are you surprised again?
Will you ever close your eyes and see my eyes again?

It's too late
We're getting nowhere at all
Oh, but I loved you so
We went through it all
Getting nowhere
Where did it all go?
