LYRICS:
You sent me a king size postcard
From your new life in Bel Air
You said though breaking up was hard
You were glad I wasn't there
You're happy in your king size bed
At least that's what you said
But I just think you're living a king size lie

You wrote me a ten page letter
Telling me about your friends
You said your life was better
Now you'd tidied up loose ends
You say you love the party life
You're happy not to be a wife
But I still think you're living a king size lie

Some day I hope you'll see
Where you should really be
Maybe it's not with me
That ship has sailed
I know we failed

You sent me a ten word email
Terse and lacking grace
In words beyond the pale
That slapped me in the face
You think that you're a lady now
But someone needs to show you how
To live a life and not a king size lie

Some day I hope you'll see
Where you should really be
Maybe it's not with me
That ship has sailed
I know we failed

Some day I hope you'll see
Where you should really be
Maybe it's not with me
That ship has sailed
I know we failed

You sent me a ten word email
Terse and lacking grace
In words beyond the pale
That slapped me in the face
You think that you're a lady now
But someone needs to show you how
To live a life and not a king size lie
You need to live a life and not a king size lie
