Parallel Lives

We are living parallel lives
We don't know about each other
We're in love with the same girl
But one of us has never met her

We don't see the same shores
We both grew up by our sides, but
We can feel the same trouble
'Cause we're just living parallel lives

We are drawing parallel paths
But parallel lines never cross, no
We don't think much about the past
We're getting used to being lost

You and me, writing lines
Doing the same thing each and every night
The same dreams, the same lies
And I wish, and I hope that (wish and I hope that)
Someday

Now another year has passed
Still, we don't know about each other
The girl has dyed her hair brown
It's like we've loved a complete stranger

You and me, writing lines
Doing the same thing each and every night
The same dreams, the same lies
We're just living parallel lives

You and me, writing lines
Doing the same thing each and every night
Or at least, once or twice
And I wish, and I hope that
