Separate Lives

Phil Collins · Love Songs - A Compilation... Old And New [2004]

You called me from the room in your hotel

All full of romance for someone that you met

And telling me how sorry you were

Leaving so soon

And that you miss me sometimes

When you're alone in your room

Do I feel lonely too?



You have no right to ask me how I feel

You have no right to speak to me so kind

I can't go on just holding on to times

So for now we'll go on living separate lives



Well I held on to let you go

And if you lost your love for me

Well you never let it show

There was no way to compromise

so now we're living separate lives



Ooh, it's so typical

Love leads to isolation

So you build that wall

Yes you build that wall

And you make it stronger



Well you have no right to ask me how I feel

You have no right to speak to me so kind

Someday I might find myself looking in your eyes

But for now we'll go on living separate lives

Yes for now we'll go on living separate lives
