A Different World
Reneé García Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In this world of ups and downs my dreams all fall through
Things just don't work out, no matter what I do
Disappointment haunts me, through each lonely day
The world around I see, in only shades of gray
But when the love light shines upon my face
I'm in a different world
A world I never knew, I'm in a different world
A world so sweet and true, I'm in a different world
I'm no longer just another face in a crowd
Hey, look into my eyes, you'll see I'm strong and I'm proud
You are all the sweetness of my life, you see
You have brought heaven right here on earth to me
No man of wealth, I know I'll ever be
But I'll be satisfied just knowing you love me
On the stage of life I've played a loser's part
It seems like I've been down right from the very start
Every time I lift myself up off the ground
Something always happens to bring the curtain down
But when your love light shines upon my face
I'm in a different world
A world so warm and sweet, I'm in a different world
Now that you've been loving me, I'm in a different world
Each time you speak my name or put your hand in mine
The empty life I knew, I leave it far behind
'Cause you gave me the love that I truly felt
Most of all you made me believe in myself
You're more than a love to me, you're my way of life
I'll forever cherish you, more each day and night
Oh,
I'm in a different world
A world that's warm, a world that's sweet
A world that's every bit complete
A world that's real, you've made me see
All the beauty surrounding me
Oh, look what you've done for me
Oh, look what you've done for me
I'm in a different world, now that you've been loving me




I'm in a different world, and that's where I want to be
I'm in a different world, now that you've been loving me...

Line by Line Meaning

In this world of ups and downs my dreams all fall through
I've experienced a lot of disappointment in life and all of my dreams seem to have failed


Things just don't work out, no matter what I do
I'm trying my best, but nothing seems to go my way


Disappointment haunts me, through each lonely day
I am constantly let down and feel isolated as a result


The world around I see, in only shades of gray
My view of the world is bleak and colorless due to my struggles


But when the love light shines upon my face
When I am shown love and affection from another person


I'm in a different world
My outlook changes and I am filled with positivity


A world I never knew, I'm in a different world
This new sense of happiness is unfamiliar to me


A world so sweet and true, I'm in a different world
This newfound world is kind and sincere


I'm no longer just another face in a crowd
I feel special and unique


Hey, look into my eyes, you'll see I'm strong and I'm proud
I am confident and proud of who I am


You are all the sweetness of my life, you see
The person I love is the source of all my happiness


You have brought heaven right here on earth to me
Being with them feels like a piece of heaven on earth


No man of wealth, I know I'll ever be
I am not rich or wealthy


But I'll be satisfied just knowing you love me
Their love is enough to bring me contentment


On the stage of life I've played a loser's part
I have had a lot of disappointments and failures in my life


It seems like I've been down right from the very start
My struggles seem to have been present from the beginning


Every time I lift myself up off the ground
Every time I try to improve my situation


Something always happens to bring the curtain down
Something always goes wrong and brings me back down


But when your love light shines upon my face
Once again, when I am shown love and affection from them


I'm in a different world
I am lifted out of my negative perspective


A world so warm and sweet, I'm in a different world
This new world is full of warmth and tenderness


Now that you've been loving me, I'm in a different world
Their love has made all the difference


Each time you speak my name or put your hand in mine
Their affectionate gestures towards me


The empty life I knew, I leave it far behind
My old, unhappy life is left behind


'Cause you gave me the love that I truly felt
Their love is real and genuine


Most of all you made me believe in myself
I feel more confident and self-assured because of their love


You're more than a love to me, you're my way of life
They are not just a romantic partner, they are an integral part of my life


I'll forever cherish you, more each day and night
I will always value and love them, more and more each day


A world that's warm, a world that's sweet
This new world is nurturing and loving


A world that's every bit complete
This new world feels whole and satisfying


A world that's real, you've made me see
This new world feels authentic and genuine


All the beauty surrounding me
I see the beauty in the world


Oh, look what you've done for me
Their love has transformed my life


I'm in a different world, and that's where I want to be
This new world they have shown me is where I want to stay


I'm in a different world, now that you've been loving me...
All thanks to their love, my world has changed completely
