Barry Manilow In Another World Lyrics

In Another World Lyrics

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 

REPEAT 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 

REPEAT 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 noticed 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 their was nothing 

I wouldn't need you anyway 

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 

REPEAT 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 

REPEAT 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
