All at once we turned our heads
   To find each other looking in a different way
   Laughter rang and people sang
   But up above as night time fell
   You ran away
   So what do I do now
   Secret mission seemed so strange somehow
  
   It happened once it happened twice
   I understood and took your love in anyway
   Leaving in a new direction
   Casual glances, take in every word you say
   So special can't be told
   Secret missions have you in their hold
  
   [Chorus:]
   Leaving for Rio, ships that pass in the night
   Spent a long day together once
   Your career at its height
   It's so hard to miss you
   When I don't even know your name
   Never the same
   Changes every day
  
   I've heard them say that you're the best
   You're never caught and can't be found
   And that's the test
   I understand just what they mean
   I've turned around to see you vanish
   Like a dream
   Stood on a tightrope for so long
   Secret meetings must go wrong
  
   [Chorus]
