lyrics

Strange how we were the ones and the onlys
But now we are lonely just the same
Strange how we were so perfectly merry
But hearts for sharing in this game
Strange that we've come to this awful conclusion
Love’s a delusion for the sane
Strange that we cannot be happy together
That we cannot weather this rain

Stranger, stranger
What was your name?
Strangers, strangers again

Strange that we’ve know that the end has been nearing
We both had a feeling things had changed
Strange we can’t sit eye to eye with each other
Can't hold one another quite the same
Strange that the words were so easily spoken
My heart hasn’t broken quite this way
Strange how the end came before the beginning
The ice has been thinning every day

Stranger, stranger
What was your name?
Strangers, strangers again
