[Verse 1]

She said "we're much too different, we're from two separate worlds"

And he admitted she was partly right

But in his heart's defense, he told her what they had in common

Was strong enough to bond them for life

He said, "Look behind your own soul and the person that you'll see

Just might remind you of me"


[Chorus]

"I laugh, I love, I hope, I try

I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry

And I know you do the same things too

So we're really not that different, me and you"


[Verse 2]

Now she could hardly argue with his pure and simple logic

But logic never could convince a heart

She had always dreamed of loving someone more exotic

And he just didn't seem to fit the part

So she searched for greener pastures but never could forget

What he whispered when she left


[Chorus]

"I laugh, I love, I hope, I try

I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry

And I know you do the same things, too

So we're really not that different, me and you."


[Bridge]

Was it time or was it truth?

Maybe both led her back to his door

And as her tears fell at his feet

She didn't say "I love you," what she said meant even more


[Chorus]

"I laugh, I love, I hope, I try

I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry

And I know you do the same things, too

So we're really not that different, me and you"
