Different Lives
Hugo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Try to get it right this time
Don't wanna sign my name on no dotted line
Movin' down roads, I cannot find that I'm not blind

Open arms and open doors
Can't seem to hold on to the memories anymore
You take a shot and then I hit the floor, still unsure
I'm asking you
To tell me baby, what's the next move
Have we anything left to lose this time?
We're already leading different lives

No easy out's, just easy in's
No modern man is really free from sin
I leave because you ask me where I've been

I'm asking you
To tell me baby, what's the next move
Have we anything left to lose this time?
We're already leading different lives

Another quiet night
A glass of bitter wine
We're slowly killing time
Apart

I'm asking you
To tell me baby, what's the next move




Have we anything left to lose this time?
We're already leading different lives, different lives

I depart because you question my whereabouts


Another quiet night
Another uneventful evening


A glass of bitter wine
I drink a drink that's both bitter and sweet


We're slowly killing time
We pass the time without purpose or intention


Apart
Separated and distant


We're already leading different lives, different lives
We are already on divergent paths
