It's Not The Same For Us
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I know you live on my street
I sometimes wonder
why we don't meet
I've seen your face in the sky
twenty-five stories high
you never come down to earth
communication (communication)
could hardly be much worse
don't keep me here in the dark
I want to be your friend
your fears are way off the mark
every generation
sees it their own way
never learning their lessons
making the same mistakes again
it's not the same for us - as history fades away
it's not the same for us - you must hear me when I say
look out on this brave new land
think of the future
the future that lays in our hands
our leaders live in the past
we can change it
there's something to hope for at last
every generation
sees it their own way
why don't we learn our lessons
don't make the same mistakes again
(Chorus)
what dreams are you chasing now?
what are you living for?
the problems that we're facing now
nobody faced before
please don't reject me
in anger or in sorrow
you've got to accept me
if we're to make a better tomorrow
it's not the same - it's not the same for us
