The Manhattan Transfer - A World Apart lyrics

Lost in a feelin' So very deep inside of me Something's not healing ever since You left this place Oh, but I loved you and although I didn't know you Just the idea of you brought Rapture to my face I feel I almost got to know you At least you made it to my heart Even though we'll always Be a world apart Now I'm getting on without you But I need to cry sometimes 'Cause I know we'll always Be a world apart Voices of children - In the streets I hear them laughing It all fades to one voice I hear crying in the night I think about you wondering If you're out there listening As if the words I sing Will somehow bring you light Well I almost got to know you At least you made it to my heart But I know we'll always Be a world apart Now I'm getting on without you But there's a shadow in my heart 'Cause I know we'll always Be a world apart Seems I almost got to know you At least you made it to my heart But I know we'll always Be a world apart Through the constancy of memory You will live inside my heart Then we'll never have to Be a world apart Over and over I never knew How much till you were gone Over and over and over You will be mine eternally
