Worlds Apart

Worlds Apart… The words are in my head, but I don’t know what to say And I don’t know where to start, we’re worlds apart… So many years of love between us So many days of joy we’ve shared So many countless nights of passion And now we feel the wear and tear Can’t see through the wall between us Can’t live through the endless fight Can’t survive the pain or pressure Close our eyes to the blinding light The words are in my head, but still I don’t know what to say And I don’t know where to start, because we’re worlds apart… Seen through your eyes or through mine I believe the picture looks the same The truth is all wrapped up in lies And neither of us can hide the shame Not one of us better than the other We both can read between the lines With each day it grows much clearer We both have seen the warning signs The words are all within my head, but some things I just won’t say And I don’t know where to start, we are worlds apart… Another night of useless struggle As you now dream asleep at rest And tomorrow come the morning I will arise to another breath And as another day of endless longing Begins to come alive in me Still another part now weeping Will fail to open its eyes and see The words are all within my head, but I don’t know what to say And I don’t know where to start, we are worlds apart…
