When two worlds drift apart

We turned water into wine
But that didn’t last
We were the victims of our age
Now we live on different floors
And go our separate ways
And talk behind closed doors

We changed our world
Waiting for it all to end
It’s such a shame
But who’s to blame
When two worlds drift apart

We used to sit around the fire
Whisper words the world outside
Would make no claim to hear
But now we talk an octave higher
In droning tones, the dawn
Relayed it all to yesteryear

We changed our world
Waiting for it all to end
It’s such a shame
But who’s to blame
When two worlds drift apart

Do you remember, we were seventeen
We took our boat out for an hour
We preferred the greenery
To the scenery of the sea
And tied up in some cosy cove
Til harbour lights appeared across the bay
Remember, remember

Into love and out of mind
A poet claimed that loving you
Has only made me blind
But love is real and crystal clear
It’s only when you need someone
The clouds will soon appear

We changed our world
Waiting for it all to end
It’s such a shame
But who’s to blame
When two worlds drift apart

Do you remember, laughter was the cure
For all the hard times that we knew
But we forgot to feed the fire
Let it all burn down
Warmth returns to cold
Poison into pain
It’s such a shame
But who’s to blame
When two worlds drift apart
Remember, remember
