Nils Lofgren - Worlds Apart lyrics

[Verse] I hold you in my arms, yeah that's when it starts I seek faith in your kiss and comfort in your heart I taste the seed upon your lips, lay my tongue upon your scars But when I look into your eyes we stand worlds apart Where the distant oceans sing and rise to the plain In this dry and troubled country your beauty remains Down from the mountain road where the highway rolls to dark Beneath Allah's blessed rain we remain worlds apart Sometimes the truth just isn't enough Or is it too much in times like this Let's throw the truth away, we'll find it in this kiss In your skin upon my skin in the beating of our hearts May the living let us in before the dead tear us apart [Outro] We'll let blood build a bridge over mountains draped in stars I'll meet you on the ridge between these worlds apart We've got this moment now to live, then it's all just dust and dark Let's let love give what it gives (6x)
