Two Different Things
Two Different Realities: Unraveling the Complex Tale of Love and Loss
Lyrics
I got all the time I could work right here in my head
I have ample time to contemplate within my thoughts.
I can come and go as I please, you always understand
I have the freedom to come and go, and you always comprehend.
I guess I should be happy, don't even know how all this began
I should feel content, but I'm unaware of how this situation originated.
I wish we cared enough to fight about it, every now and then
I wish we cared enough to engage in occasional conflicts.
What I want and what I have are two different things
Desire and reality are divergent for me.
What you were is not what you've become
You have transformed from what you were in the past.
We've lost so much in-between
We've lost a lot in the course of these changes.
What I wanted and what I had are two different things
My aspirations and actualities are disparate.
Honey, turn that record off and put your car keys on the table
Pause the music and place your car keys on the table.
You know, I can't tell you everything but I'll say what I'm able
I can't reveal everything, but I'll share what I can.
Always tried to please you and I'll try it once again
I've consistently tried to please you, and I'll attempt it once more.
The more I change the things I do, the less you let me in
The more I change, the more you distance yourself from me.
What you want and what I am are two different things
Your desires and who I am are mismatched.
What I was is not what I've become
I've transformed from what I used to be.
We've lost so much in-between
We've lost much in the process of change.
What you wanted and what I am are two different things
Your expectations and my reality don't align.
Well, there it is, it's on the table, we said all there is to say
We've put everything on the table, expressed all there is to say.
You keep the name and the number, you let me go, I'll let you stay
You keep the name and number; I'll let you stay, and I'll leave.
'Cause what we wanted and what we had are two different things
Our desires and what we possessed are discordant.
What we were is not what we've become
We've changed from what we used to be.
We've lost so much in-between
We've lost much in the midst of these changes.
What we wanted and what we had are two different things
What we wanted and what we had are not the same.
What we wanted and what we had are two different things
Desires and realities remain incongruent for us.
