The Alan Parsons Project Lyrics
"Separate Lives"

It's been a long road, we've walked the last mile
We reach the same conclusion, and we stop for a while
Together we know the way we must go
We're leaving an illusion that's for us to share
Only for us to share

We live our separate lives and go our different ways
Cause we don't see eye to eye
And we can't stand face to face
We live our separate lives while counting all the days
Till the two of us arrive in another time and place

We share the same thoughts, we read the same lines
We meet on sad occasions and in happier times
A spoken goodbye, and both of us try
To walk away in silence, that's for us to share
Only for us to share

We live our separate lives and go our different ways
Cause we don't see eye to eye
And we can't stand face to face
We live our separate lives while counting all the days
Till the two of us arrive in another time and place

And always goodbye, but heaven knows why
I can't erase the memory, that's for us to share
Only for us to share, only for us to share
Only for us to share, only for us to share

We live our separate lives and go our different ways
Cause we don't see eye to eye
And we can't stand face to face
We live our separate lives while counting all the days
Till the two of us arrive in another time and place

(Repeat)
