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 choose, 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 shut 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 There are never any fights
