Momus
Parallel
I miss the moment we never met
We pass like ships on the sea
And yet a part of me is aware of the fact
That you mean nothing to me

There's a sun in a parallel world
There's a sea in a parallel world
You love me in a parallel world
I believe in a parallel world

And when I saw you on Saturday
My arms seemed glued to my side
I had the line prepared to say to you
But my voice just died when I tried

There's a sun in a parallel world
There's a sea in a parallel world
You love me in a parallel world
So I believe in a parallel world

And if empathy were real
You'd understand the way I feel
And we'd sail to watch the dolphins
As they move across the Earth
You were always quite the talker
But the silence would be smarter
In your Quadrophenia parka
And my Sherlock Holmes deerstalker
Mrs Porter and her daughter
In their villa in Mallorca
And the ship would cross the water
Mrs Porter, Mrs Porter
In a Sherlock Holmes deerstalker
There's a sun in a parallel world
There's a sea in a parallel world
You love me in a parallel world
So I believe in a parallel world
