Song Lyrics - Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)

Here we stand 
Worlds apart hearts broken in two two two
Sleepless nights 
Losing ground I'm reaching for you you you

Feelin' that it's gone 
Can change your mind
If we can't go on 
To survive the tide love divides

Someday love will find you 
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you 
How we touched and went our separate ways
If she ever hurts you 
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you 
Though we touched and went our separate ways

Troubled times 
Caught between confusion and pain pain pain
Distant eyes 
Promises we made were in vain, in vain, vain

If you must go I wish you love 
You'll never walk alone
Take care my love 
Miss you love

Someday love will find you 
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you 
How we touched and went our separate ways
If she ever hurts you 
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you 
Though we touched and went our separate ways

Oh
Someday love will find you 
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
If she ever hurts you 
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you

I still love you I really love you babe
And if she ever hurts you 
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
No
No
