What's this song about?

1
Lately I've become such a postcard lover
2
especially of the ones I get from you
3
and if, these days, they don't come quite so often
4
they charm me more than ever when they do
5
I picture you beside a sunny harbour
6
waiting for a boat to come to shore
7
your finger lingering on a postcard spinner
8
in the doorway of a tacky tourist store
9
Or whiling away those warm enchanted evenings
10
writing in the corner of some caf
11
those careless collections of words and feelings
12
you happened to feel like sending me that day
13
I save every card, although it gets hard
14
to keep some order amongst those random souvenirs
15
It amazes me some, the way we've become
16
such postcard lovers, divided by the oceans
17
and the years
18
Have you found yourself some wonderful companion
19
and all the happiness that heaven allows
20
or are you homesick for that grey and drizzly nation
21
as you walk home amidst the evening crowds
22
The postcards I send to you from my own travels
23
can hardly match the ones you send to me
24
but at least I give you news of what I'm doing
25
and open my heart to you occasionally
26
Looking back on all the cards you've written
27
from every far-flung corner beneath the sun
28
they say so little of the life you're really leading
29
so little of the person you've become
30
But they still bear the traces of all the special places
31
We've kept deep within our hopes and in our fears
32
It amazes me some, the way we've become
33
such postcard lovers, divided by the oceans
34
and the years
