We are secrets to each other
Each one s life a novel
No-one else has read.
Even joined in bonds of love
We re linked to one another
By such slender threads.

We are planets to each other
Drifting in our orbits
To a brief eclipse.
Each of us a world apart
Alone and yet together
Like two passing ships.

Chorus
Just between us
I think it s time for us to recognize
The differences we sometimes fear to show.
Just between us
I think it s time for us to realize
The spaces in between
Leave room for you and I to grow.

We are strangers to each other
Full of sliding panels
An illusion show.
Acting well-rehearsed routines
Or playing from the heart?
It s hard for one to know.

Chorus

We are islands to each other
Building hopeful bridges
On a troubled sea.
Some are burned or swept away
Some we would not choose
But we re not always free.

Chorus
