TWO DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS
                      (John Denver)


They say they love each other
   I've no doubt they do
They say they'll always be together
   That may not be true

They come from different places
   Different points of view
They find themselves in different spaces
   Everything is all brand new

Two different directions
   Too many different ways
One always on the road somewhere
   The other one always stays
Too often unhappy
   Too often on your own
When you are moving in different directions
   True love is all alone

Old stories start to surface
   Patterns from long ago
And loving quickly turns to anger
   For reasons they don't even know
The strongest heart can be broken
   With one insensitive word
The deepest feelings remain unspoken
   No one is seen and nothing heard

Two different directions
   Too many different ways
One always wants to work things out
   The other one wants to play
Too ready for changes
   Too much that just can't wait
When you are moving in different directions
   True love can turn to hate

If opposites attract each other
    What's the reason for
One being like an open window
    One just like a closing door

Two different directions
   Too many different ways
One likes to see the morning sunrise
   The other one sleeps in late
Too many tomorrows
   Too many times too late
When you are moving in different directions
   True love may have to wait
If you are committed to different directions
   True love will have to wait
