    Story Behind the Song
    "Worlds Apart was the first song recorded for "Windows to the World" and has been designated as the first single. Stuart came up with the main riff and title the gave it to producer Howard Leese who added the verses. Stuart later added the music for the bridge but they were having trouble getting the right feel lyrically so they passed it on the singer/songwriter, Jamie Kyle who had written "Stranded" for Heart as as well as a number of hits for Faith Hill who finished it off. As Howard had played the harmony guitar solo with Stuart on the title track of the first album, "Stuart Smith's Heaven & Earth" it was decided to invite him to do the same on this one.

    Lyrics
    WORLDS APART
    (Smith/Kyle/Leese)

    Your promises echo as lightning crosses the sky
    Your tears fall like water across the great divide
    Your words they whisper to me
    Your touch still thunders through me
    The sun will surely rise
    As dreams worship the night
    Your memory burns so bright

    There may be oceans between us
    But we live under the same sky
    There may be mountains that touch the stars
    But there is nothing that love can't climb
    You're still in my heart
    Even though we're worlds apart

    The distance between us is nothing more than time
    You speak the language that only love can provide
    My heart it cries for mercy
    Waiting for the time we'll be
    Together once again
    Time will have no end
    Feeling like we're at the start

    Chorus,

    When you close your eyes you know I'm there
    Can you hear me
    And feel me there
    Your words they whisper to me
    My heart, it cries for mercy
