life is a game where nothing is real - only you, only me
right from the start we chase an ideal - fooling you, fooling me

are you hearing what i hear
are you feeling what i feel

you´r still no. 1 but they´re coming up to get you
young eyes burning bright they can see a better way
you won´t sleep tonight but that´s the price you pay

out of the past the words to a song - calling you, calling me
hope it will last but time pushes on - pullling you, pulling me

are you hearing what i hear
are you feeling what i feel

every dream you had like balloons they burst around you
so you´re on the phone trying to conjure up your past
but the damage has been done
we´re too far apart and strangers we´ve become

and i wonder if it´s true
is the world a different place for me and you

are you hearing what i hear
are you feeling what i feel

in out hearts we´re still the same
but the worlds we chose to live
in may have changed
and the damage has been done we trust no-one
we´re too far apart and strangers we´ve become
