we are living parallel lives we don t know about each other we re in love with the same girl but one of us has never met her we don t see the same shores we both grew up by our sides but we can feel the same trouble cause we re just living parallel lives we are drawing parallel paths but parallel lines never cross no we don t think much about the past we re getting used to being lost you and me writing lines doing the same thing each and every night the same dreams the same lies and i wish and i hope that someday now another year has passed still we don t know about each other the girl has dyed her hair brown it s like we ve loved a complete stranger you and me writing lines doing the same thing each and every night the same dreams the same lies we re just living parallel lives you and me writing lines doing the same thing each and every night or at least once or twice
