A World Apart - Manhattan Transfer Lyrics


Lost in a feelin'

So very deep inside of me

Something's not healing

Ever since you left this place



Oh, but I loved you

And although I didn't know you

Just the idea of you

Brought rapture to my face



I feel, I almost got to know you

At least you made it to my heart

Even though we'll always

Be a world apart



Now I'm getting on without you

But I need to cry sometimes

'Cause I know we'll always

Be a world apart, a world apart, a world apart



Voices of children

In the streets, I hear them laughing

It all fades to one voice

I hear crying in the night



I think about you

Wondering if you're out there listening

As if the words

I sing will somehow bring you light



Well, I almost got to know you

At least you made it to my heart

But I know we'll always

Be a world apart



Now I'm getting on without you

But there's a shadow in my heart

'Cause I know we'll always

Be a world apart



Seems I almost got to know you

At least you made it to my heart

But I know we'll always

Be a world apart



Through the constancy of memory

You will live inside my heart

Then we'll never have to

Be a world apart



Over and over I never knew

How much till you were gone

Over and over and over

You will be mine eternally, I think



I never knew how much I loved you, baby

Why do we have to be?

At least you made it to my heart

You know I never knew how much

I never knew how much

I never knew how much till you were gone
