- Montana Julian from Missoula, Mt It just seems to me that the thematic element of Separate Ways(Worlds Apart) musically speaking is a classical piece that I just can’t put my thumb on. Something maybe that Beethoven or Mozart might have done. Anyone else with a background in the classical classics hear what I am hearing?

Unless, of course, you are Steve Perry.
This song is way better than any song you will ever write.
I think this song is about how life is a series of moments. The singer is telling the girl he loved that she is worthy of love, the best love there is, even though they can’t be together.
That one night you have together will always remind you that true love exists. It’s out there.
So even if your other relationships don’t work out, you should remember that you experienced true love, even if it was just for that one night. You are never alone, because that moment happened. True love doesn’t desert us, it stays with us, even if we’ll never be with that person again.
Let's face it, the video would be nothing without Steve Perry's hair. There. I said it. That and the keyboard on the warehouse wall.

@drjayphd LOL did you watch that thing on Youtube by WatchMojo? It's hilarious!
This song I think in a way, compliments' This Boy' by The Beatles and vice versa. Its about being with someone who has just decided they dont want to be with you anymore, that they want to be with someone else...the other man so to speak. Its about letting them go but reminding them of everything you shared, times that you touched, and how you will still love them no matter what the outcome...if he hurts you, true love wont desert you. Its about always being there for them even though you may have gone your seperate ways for now. Fantastic song, I give it my two thumbs up anyhow... :)
even though two people are separated, they will always be together in a way. gotta love those keyboards throughout the song. and neal makes that guitar fucking WAIL!
i'm not much into love songs, but Journey does so much more than the typical "don't leave me" crap we hear on the radio/MTV these days.
very 80s but very cool
Steve Perry is the best there is.
tear beautiful song
If you've ever found real love and had to let it go, you can relate to this song...

Separate Ways (Worlds Apart) by Journey Lyrics Meaning – The Enduring Anthem of Heartache and Hope
by SMF AI · Published January 15, 2024 · Updated April 24, 2024
- Music Video
Unraveling the Tapestry of Heartache
The hidden meaning behind the chorus, a message of unwavering love and protection, memorable lines that echo through decades, the enduring resonance of ‘separate ways’.
Feeling that it’s gone Can change your mind If we can’t go on To survive the tide love divides
(Chorus) Someday love will find you Break those chains that bind you One night will remind you How we touched and went our seperate ways If he ever hurts you True love won’t desert you You know I still love you Though we touched and went our seperate ways
Troubled times Caught between confusion and pain…pain…pain Distant eyes Promises we made were in vain…in vain…in vain
If you must go I wish you love You’ll never walk alone Take care my love Miss you love
Ohhhhh Someday love will find you Break those chains that bind you One night will remind you
If he ever hurts you True love won’t desert you You know I still love you
Full Lyrics
In the pantheon of rock ballads, Journey’s 1983 hit ‘Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)’ stands as a towering beacon of heartache and resolve. With its thunderous energy and piercing lyrics, the song captures the universal human experience of love lost and the yearning for connection. The track’s poignant message, coupled with its undeniably catchy hooks, cemented it as a radio staple and a fan favorite.
Beyond its sheer rock prowess, the depth of emotion weaved into its verses and chorus invites a deeper exploration of its lyrical meaning. What is it that makes ‘Separate Ways’ so relatable and enduring? Diving into the heart of the song opens up a vault of introspection on love, loss, and the complexities of human relationships.
At its core, ‘Separate Ways’ is a narrative of two souls finding themselves at a crossroad. The visceral opening lines, ‘Here we stand / Worlds apart, hearts broken in two,’ immediately plunge the listener into the crux of a rift so profound it seems to fracture the universe itself. The song speaks to the inevitability of change and the pain that accompanies the realization that something once thought unbreakable can shatter.
The recurring theme of sleepless nights and losing ground reflects the struggle against the current of change, a poignant emblem of the resilience and desperation that often accompanies the end of a relationship. Here, Journey expertly encapsulates the internal turmoil of holding on to a lover who has already drifted miles away.
The song’s chorus surges with an infectious blend of hope and warning. ‘Someday love will find you / Break those chains that bind you’ is a promise of future happiness and a victory over present pain. Yet, there’s a raw acknowledgment woven into the backdrop of these words – a recognition that even amidst the promise of healing and new beginnings, the remnants of past love leave indelible marks.
Moreover, the phrase ‘One night will remind you’ evokes the notion that memory serves as both a comfort and a curse. While it can rekindle the warmth of old affection, it’s also an unwelcome guest that resurrects the specter of loss. This duality presents the audience with a complex emotional landscape to navigate.
The heartfelt assurance, ‘If he ever hurts you / True love won’t desert you,’ speaks to an undying loyalty that transcends the boundaries of their separate ways. This lyric suggests unconditional love, a love so powerful that it persists despite the fragmentation of the relationship. Journey imparts a sentiment that resonates deeply with anyone who has ever had to let go, yet continually cares from afar.
Through these lines, the song becomes a testament to the selflessness that often underpins true affection. It’s about wishing the best for someone, irrespective of personal heartache. Such is the song’s universal appeal – it not only mirrors the pain of separation but also the noblest human capacity for love.
As the song crescendos, the lyrics ‘I still love you, girl / I really love you, girl’ cut straight to the heart. This simple, direct phrase carries the weight of genuine emotion, undiminished by time or distance. Its repetition serves as a mantra, a resolute declaration amidst the cacophony of synthesizers and guitars.
The power of ‘Separate Ways’ lies not only in its grand instrumental arrangement but in these small, intimate admissions that form the backbone of its storytelling. The song’s legacy is fortified by such moments – lines that listeners have clung to in times of personal upheaval and that echo through the decades.
The magnetic pull of ‘Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)’ resonates with the timeless journey of human emotion. It’s a musical chronicle that speaks to the listener’s own history with love and loss, making it more than a song — it’s a shared human experience. Each chord and lyric hammers home the universality of recovering from a broken heart while remaining open to the possibilities of future love.
As its legacy continues to unfold, ‘Separate Ways’ stands not only as a staple of rock music but as a narrative that offers solace and solidarity to those navigating the tumultuous waters of love and separation. Journey’s masterpiece remains relevant, reminding us that though we may travel our separate paths, we are never truly alone in our experiences.

Journey - Separate Ways (Worlds Apart) Lyrics
Feelin' that it's gone Can't change your mind If we can't go on To survive the tide Love divides
Someday love will find you Break those chains that bind you One night will remind you How we touched And went our separate ways If he ever hurts you True love won't desert you You know I still love you Though we touched And went our separate ways
Troubled times Caught between confusions and pain, pain, pain Distant eyes Promises we made were in vain In vain, vain
If you must go I wish you love You'll never walk alone Take care my love Miss you love
[Instrumental Interlude]
Oooooooooh Someday love will find you Break those chains that bind you One night will remind you If he ever hurts you True love won't desert you You know I still love you

Journey is an American rock band formed in 1973 in San Francisco by former members of Santana and Frumious Bandersnatch.
