(Roger Miller and Bill Anderson)
|
Your world was so different from mine, don't you see
|
And we couldn't be close, though we tried
|
We both reached for heavens, but ours weren't the same.
|
That's what happens when two worlds collide
|
|
Your world was made up of things sweet and good
|
My world could never fit in, I wish it could
|
Two hearts lie in shambles and oh, how they've cried
|
That's what happens when two worlds collide
|
|
Your world was made up of things sweet and good
|
My world could never fit in, I wish it could
|
Two hearts lie in shambles and oh, how they've cried
|
That's what happens when two worlds collide
|
That's what happens when two worlds collide
|
|
I fancy that I see a bunch of roses
|
A blossom from and orange tree in your hair
|
While the organ plays "I Love You Truly,"
|
Just let me pretend that I am there
|
|
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel
|
That should be ringing now for you and me
|
Down the aisle with someone else you're walking
|
Those wedding bells with never ring for me
|
Those wedding bells with never ring for me
|
