We'll Act like Strangers

I remember days so simple and sublime
When we lit each other's fires on a dime
But you know and I know, all that the time drags in
Worries and weight, and dust on the shelves,
maybe we introduce some different selves, and
We tell some little white lies, and don't delve too deep
Why don't we pretend for a change, ain't nothing wrong
Change our real names, I'll call you Roberta
We'll act like strangers, again and again and again
I won't bring up, nothing bout the house or kid
If you don't wear that same dress that your mother did
Cuz you know and I know, how heavy it wears on you
Tell ya what we'll do, pretend for a change, ain't nothing wrong
Change our real names, I'll call you Carla or Camille
We'll act like strangers, again and again and again
Cuz baby time is a fool
Maybe we don't play by the rules
All it will do is just keep us apart
Instead of making our hearts in tune
Let's play the part of young lovers under the moon
We'll see you and me in a newborn light
And we'll act like strangers tonight
