When Two Worlds Drift Apart

We turned water into wine

Love that didn't last

We were the victims of our age

Now we live on different floors

And go our seperate ways

And talk behind closed doors

We changed our world

Waiting for it all to end

It's such a shame

But who's to blame

When two worlds drift apart?

We used to sit around the fire

And whisper words the world outside

Could make no claim to hear

Now we talk an octave higher

In droning tones that don't

Relate at all to yesteryear

We changed our world

Waiting for it all to end

It's a such a shame

But who's to blame

When two worlds drift apart?

Do you remember when we were seventeen?

We took a boat out for an hour

But we prefer the greenery to the scenery of the sea

Tied up in some cosy cove

How the lights appeared across the bay

Remember?

Into love and out of mind

A poet claimed that loving you

Has only made me blind

But love is merely crystal clear

It's only when you need someone

The clouds will soon appear

We changed out world

Waiting for it all to end

It's such a shame

But who's to blame

When two worlds drift apart?

Do you remember when laughter was the cure

For all the hard times that we knew

But we forgot to feed the fire

And let it all burn down

Warmth returns to cold

Poison into pain

It's such a shame

But who's to blame

When two worlds drift apart?
