Lyrics
Well he was Thailand based
Introduction of a man based in Thailand
She was an airforce wife
Describing his wife as being associated with the airforce
He used to fly weekends
Man used to fly during weekends, living an easy life
It was the easy life
Describing the carefree nature of his life
But then it turned around
Unexpected change in the man's life
cnd he began to change
The man undergoes a transformation
She didn't wonder then
His wife doesn't notice the change
She didn't think it strange
She doesn't find his behavior strange
But then he got a call
The man receives a sudden call
He had to leave that night
He has to leave urgently
He couldn't say too much
He can't reveal much about the situation
But it would be alright
Assurance that everything will be okay
He didn't need to pack
No need for him to pack
They'd meet the next night
They plan to meet the next night
He had a job to do
He has a mission to accomplish in Cambodia
Flying to Cambodia
Continuation of his journey to Cambodia
cnd as the nights passed by
The wife tries to reminisce about the past
She tried to trace the past
She attempts to trace his history
The way he used to look
Recollection of his appearance
The way he used to laugh
Recollection of his laughter
I guess she'll never know
Uncertainty about what changed in him
What got inside his soul
Speculation about the turmoil in his soul
She couldn't make it out
The wife cannot understand
Just couldn't take it all
She can't handle the situation
He had the saddest eyes
Description of the sadness in his eyes
The girl had ever seen
The man appears to live in a dream
He used to cry some nights
He cries some nights
cs though he lived a dream
Suggesting internal struggle despite living a dream
cnd as she held him close
He seeks solace in his wife's embrace
He used to search her face
He searches her face for understanding
cs though she knew the truth
The wife senses a hidden truth
Lost inside Cambodia
Reference to being lost in Cambodia
But then a call came through
A call informs he'll return soon
They said he'd soon be home
Preparation for his return
She had to pack a case
She needs to pack for a rendezvous
cnd they would make a rendezvous
Plans for a reunion
But now a year has passed
A year passes without communication
cnd not a single word
No communication despite the time passed
cnd all the love she knew
All the love she knew has vanished
Has disappeared out in the haze
Love has disappeared into uncertainty
(Cambodia, don't cry now, no tears now)
A plea for Cambodia not to cry, indicating sadness
cnd now the years have passed
More time passes without communication
With not a single word
Continued silence
But there is only one thing left
Only one certainty remains
I know for sure
The wife won't see his face again
She won't see his face again
