What's the difference between you and me To me it's kind of small To you it's like prison What's the difference between you and me To me it almost happens To you it almost isn't How did you become so sure Your girlfriend never smiles And no one ever calls You begin to wonder if they were your friends at all You frown You take a look around You shout This will never get better But the doubt that you grow When you feel desprouted Turning your field into a deeper valley Chorus You'd find (i know you'll find) The mountains aren't so high (the mountains aren't so high) If you'd only try (oooooooooh) To do better It's 9:33 and the traffic, the stoplight Somebody hits you Nothing ever goes right And the gridlock Nothing ever goes right And it's just a little scratch Not a permanent scar It's just a tiny dent You don't need a new car It's just a little mess Your dreams aren't shattered You climb up While i hold the ladder Chorus But how many times i've tried How many time i've missed and i've tried How many times i've tried How many time i've missed and i've tried When everything's so difficult I feel so alone But i find a better view On the other side of the window So that's the difference between you and me What if you believe that the grass could grow Up through the snow It's possible Chorus To do better than get by Chorus To do better Chorus To do better than get by
