There's nothing quite as lonely
As a sky that turns to gray;
Or a love that just starts dyin'
And slowly fades away.

You werre my best companion
Now we lie silent in the dark;
Why do you and me
Have to be worlds apart?

There's nothing quite as empty
As when children go away;
And all that's left are memories
Of all those yesterdays.

You can't understand the feeling
'Til it finds its way to your heart;
Why do you and me
Have to be worlds apart?

--- Instrumental ---

There's nothing quite as ugly
As two people full of hate;
We'll all end up as equals
When we stand at heaven's gate.

Love is still the answer
It's the only place to start;
Why do you and me
Have to be worlds apart?

Love is still the answer
It's the only place to start;
Why do you and me
Have to be worlds apart?..
