[Verse 1:] 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 we're 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 Till it finds its way to your heart Why do you and me have to be Worlds apart? 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 [Chorus:][x2] Love is still the answer It's the only place to start Why do you and me have to be Worlds apart?
