Nothing In Common

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.

Of all the people in the world

I hoped you'd understand

You and me have grown so far apart

Don't show me faded photographs

Just tell it from the heart

And after all that we've been through

Don't you know I feel for you

We've got nothing in common

So much to lose, yeah yeah yeah

You say, that boys must never cry

If we keep our feelings to ourselves

We'll be boys until we die

(Di-di-di-di-di-die)

Ewww, yeah

Inside this velvet glove

There's always been an iron fist

Destroying all we love

And after all that we've been through

Don't you know I feel for you

We've got nothing in common

So much to lose, yeah yeah yeah

And after all that we've been through

Don't you know I feel for you

We've got nothing in common

So much to lose, yeah yeah yeah

Oh, now there were times I wanted to

Shake you, break you, bring you to your knees

Oh, now there were times I wanted to

Touch you, hold you, help me, help me please

Whoa, o-whoa

Such a crying shame

You know I loved you then, you know I love you now

And nothing else has changed

And after all that we've been through

Don't you know I feel for you

We've got nothing in common

So much to lose, yeah yeah yeah

And after all that we've been through

Don't you know I feel for you

We've got nothing in common

So much to lose, yeah yeah yeah

And after all that we've been through

Don't you know I feel for you

We've got nothing in common

So much to lose, yeah yeah yeah

And after all that we've been through

Don't you know I feel for you

We've got nothing in common

So much to lose, yeah yeah yeah...
