Not That Different

She said we're much too different

We're from two separate worlds

And he admitted she was partly right

But in his heart's defense he told her

What they had in common

Was strong enough to bond them for life

He said look behind your own soul

And the person that you'll see

Just might remind you of me

I laugh, I love, I hope, I try

I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry

And I know you do the same things, too

So we're really not that different, me and you

She could hardly argue

With his pure and simple logic

But logic never could convince a heart

She had always dreamed of loving someone more exotic

And he just didn't seem to fit the part

So she searched for greener pastures

But never could forget

What he whispered when she left

I laugh, I love, I hope, I try

I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry

And I know you do the same things, too

So we're really not that different, me and you

Was it time or was it truth

Maybe both lead her back to his door

As her tears fell at his feet

She didn't say "I love you"

What she said meant even more

I laugh, I love, I hope, I try

I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry

And I know you do the same things, too

So we're really not that different, me and you
