A Different You Lyrics

in a different universe far from here
there’s another me that fell in love with another you
she’s sitting in that apartment similar to mine
listening to the same emptiness and quiet
that surrounds her day and night and fills her up from inside
but when I chose to leave she chose to stay
and when you held on to trouble the other you just let it fade away
he doesn’t really care whether he is wrong or right
and she’s able to see grey where I see black or white

just one little step in another direction...
one little thought you’re holding on to...
one little second of hesitation...
...could change your life and you’d be a different you
you’d be a different you
they’re fighting the same old demons
but somehow they seem to manage it all better
they get on with each other
and when you went to see that girl the other you would second guess
and end that mess
they would band together where we both tried to dot
they were able to move on where we were running on the spot
running on the spot
running on the spot
just one little step in another direction...
one little thought you’re holding on to...
one little second of hesitation...
...could change your life and you’d be a different you
you’d be a different you

why can’t we be like them and chase those ghosts away?
forget about pride tonight?
we’d leave those fears behind and not run away
don’t you think it might be worth a try?
it might be worth a try!
you’d be a different you and I’d be a different me
and we would start up new
