A World Apart Lyrics

She walks in my room and closes the door
She looks in my eyes and finds the person I've been searching for
And darling I miss you, yeah I miss you so much ...

What is this world that we're living in? Why can't we just be friends?
What is this world that we're dreaming in? Does this have to be the end?

She's like a glass of water in the middle of night
Cold yet understanding, she makes me feel alright
And darling I miss you, yeah I miss you so much ...

What is this world that we're living in? Why can't we just be friends?
What is this world that we're dreaming in? Does this have to be the end?

The end? The end?
Darling forgive me. I'm changing so much ...

What is this world that we're living in? Why can't we just be friends?
What is this world that we're dreaming in? Does this have to be the end?

And darling I miss you ... so much

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I can't put my finger on the meaning of this song. Obviously about him thinking his partner is so close to him, and he misses her, yet he doesn't want her to be anymore than friends. 'She's like a glass of water in the middle of night' justifies this. She's making him feel alright, yet not spectacular, but she can still support him. In spite of this, he can't just be friends with her, because morales and values get in the way, or something like that is stopping them from being just friends. Which is why he exclaims 'what is this world that we're living in!?'
