On another world by another star At another place and time In another state of consciousness In another state of mind
Everything was almost perfect Everything fell into place The jury reached a different verdict Before the judge dismissed the case
In a parallel universe That's happening right now Things between us must be worse But it's hard to see just how
And everything could have been perfect Everything in the right place Then I wouldn't have to play the suspect Accused, abandoned and disgraced
I didn't shoot, I didn't pull the trigger It wasn't me I'm just a plain and simple singer I heard the sound, I turned my head around To watch our love shot down
In another lonely universe We're laying side by side And no one's hurt and no one's cursed And no one needs to hide
And everything is almost perfect Everything is almost right There are never any conflicts There are never any fights
