In Another World - Barry Manilow
This is the first time on my own This is the first time I've ever been alone like this The silence covers wall to wall I never knew how suddenly the night can fall Far away I can here the city screams Drift away I could be beside you in my dreams [Chorus:] In another world I could walk away Pretend there was nothing I wouldn't need you anyway In another world But not in this world I have no stronghold to defend But still my heart is outside, beating at the door again No promises to make or keep And though I'm free to go I end up chasing sleep again Drift away Wonder if you think of me Yesterday, is the place I'm going endlessly [Chorus] And though I realize the truth Is not idealized in you Why should I be surprised to find That you are always on my mind [Chorus 2x] This is the first time on my own This is the first time I've ever been alone like this The silence covers wall to wall I never knew how suddenly the night can fall Far away I can here the city screams Drift away I could be beside you in my dreams [Chorus] In another world But not in this world I have no strong hold to defend But still my heart is outside, beating at the door again No promise to make or keep One thought I'm free to go I end up chasing sleep again Drift away Wonder if you think of me Yesterday, is the place I'm going endlessly [Chorus] And though I realize the truth Is not that I desire in you Why should I be surprised to find That you are always on my mind [Chorus 2x] This is the first time on my own This is the first time I ever been alone like this This is the first time I ever been alone like this
