Lyrics
Together Apart
Chorus: In the same house, the same room, the same double bed
We grew so lonely together
With the same name, the same kids, and all the same
friends
We grew together apart
We had it one time, this thing they call love
At first, such a blessing from heaven above
As the day turned to months then to years of our lives
Our loves been pushed to the side
Everyone thought that we?d last forever
We looked so happy when we were together
But when we were at home we?d have nothing to say
How long can we go on this way?
Chorus: In the same house, the same room, the same double bed
We grew so lonely together
With the same name, the same kids, and all the same friends
We grew together apart
Nobody ever touched me like you
With the love and the passion like I never knew
Now the joy and the laughter are just fond memories
As you live like a stranger with me
I was so lonely night after night
But only ?cause I had to work overtime
Now I?m too tired for romance?.I?ve so much on my mind
Two hearts alone one more time
Chorus: In the same house, the same room, the same double bed
We grew so lonely together
With the same name, the same kids, and all the same friends
We grew together apart
We grew together apart
