Another Life

Barry Manilow · Other Songs - Barry Manilow

Disconnected, solitary

Standing all alone

Complicated, arbitrary

My feeling's still don't feel my own



Now you've changed your mind

You reach out once again

But how am I to tell you

I'm not who I was, back then



That was another life

Simply another life

And baby it's all gone

Don't you see the past is past

That some things just aren't made to last

No point in holding on

To another life



Desolated, disbelieving

I watched you walk away

You made your mind up

You didn't need me

No words could ever make you want to stay



Now I hear you tell me

My heart's as hard as steel

But I would never hurt you

Just to show you how, it feels



That was another life

Simply another life

And baby it's all gone

Don't you see the past is past

And some things just aren't made to last

No point in holding on

To another life



(close your eyes) close your eyes

Let it rest

Tell me you will be OK

You've got to look ahead

It's for the best

Let me slip away



That was another life

Simply another life

And baby it's all gone

Don't you see the past is past

That some things just aren't made to last

No point in holding on

To another life



Let me slip away
