All full of romance for someone that I met
And telling you how sorry I was, leaving so soon
And that I miss you sometimes when I am alone in my room
Do you feel lonely too?
I have no right to speak to you so kind
I can't go on just holding on to time
Now that we're living (living) separate lives
And if you lost your love for me, well you never let it show (never let it show)
There was no way to compromise
So now we're living (living)
Separate lives
So I build that wall (build that wall)
Yes, I build that wall (build that wall)
And I make it stronger
I have no right to speak to you so kind
Some day I might (I might) find myself looking in your eyes
But for now, we'll go on living separate lives
Yes for now, we'll go on living separate lives
Ah, separate lives
