[Intro]
Mm
Ooh, yeah
Ooh, yeah
Ooh, oh, oh, yeah
Ooh, ooh
Mm, yeah, alright now
[Verse 1]
I see you and I know you see me
As we go by, our eyes never meet
Seems to be an invisible screen
You keep your side of the street, yeah
Just another lost face in the crowd
Sayin' nothing, but I'm shoutin' out loud
From my heart, wonderin' why it should be
The lonely lives that we lead
[Pre-Chorus]
Are you so different to me? (Are you so different to me?)
I know you can't possible be
We're two in a million, but you could the one
That makes my perception complete
[Chorus]
We go by like parallel lines
Living out our separate lives
If only we crossed the space in between
How beautiful it could be (How beautiful it could be)
How beautiful it could be
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
We're all so busy tryna get ahead
We don't even see the people close to the edge
We're tryna find the light at the tunnel's end
Maybe we should just turn our heads
[Pre-Chorus]
Are you so different to me? (Are you so different to me?)
I know you can't possible be
We're two in a million, but you could be the one
That makes my perception complete
[Chorus]
We go by like parallel lines
Living out our separate lives
If only we crossed the space in between
How beautiful it could be (How beautiful it could be)
How beautiful it could be
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Bridge]
Just imagine if those lines would come together
For a moment in a world where there's no strangers
Make a little effort together
Close up the distance between all these parallel lines
Close up the distance between all these parallel lines
Close up the distance between all these parallel lines
[Guitar Solo]
Oh
Mhm, yeah
Play it for me now
Eh, eh, eh, yeah
[Outro]
Do-bu-do-do, do-do, oh yeah
Do-bu-do-do, do-do, yeah (Parallel lines)
Do, do, do, oh, oh, oh (Parallel lines)
Do, do, do, do, do, oh yeah (Parallel lines)
How beautiful it could be (Oh yeah, parallel lines, yeah)
How beautiful it could be (It could be beautiful, parallel lines, yeah)
How beautiful it could be (Parallel lines, beautiful)
How beautiful it could be (It could be beautiful, parallel lines, baby)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, parallel lines
Ooh, parallel lines
Beautiful, baby, parallel lines
Woo, parallel lines
