Here are you and here am I
Looking in each other's eyes
Trying when there's no words left to say
Wondering how it came to this
When all we knew was happiness
But that was then
And then was yesterday
And so I'm on my own again
It seems the world we're living in
Always brings you back to what you've known
That you can't hold on to anything
The bird in hand just cannot sing
And so I guess I'll make it on my own
Well, I've tried, yes, I've tried
And Lord only knows the many tears I've cried for you
But I just can't seem to see the world
The same way that you do
So I guess I'm back to being on my own
Living in a fantasy, seeing what you want to see
Trying to believe what isn't there
Wishing for what used to be and running from reality
Isn't going to change this sad affair
Well, I've tried, yes, I've tried
And Lord only knows the many tears I've cried for you
But I just can't seem to see the world
The same way that you do
So I guess I'm back to being on my own
