Strangers of the Spring

A flower dies today in a dream of spring
Oh what a shame I say, such a precious thing
What have they done to you, oh my dear, dead love
I fall back down and cry to the skies above

Your innocence - it sinks back to the earth
The girl you were is buried too... in dirt

I never wanted this for you
It hurts to see you in pain
The only thing that hurt more was
When you pushed me away
I felt it coming for a mile but yet I didn't listen
I told you that I would stay here until the very end
But everything I did and said just had no meaning to you
My unending concern
Your point of no return
I gave you everything I had but it was never enough
And then you said goodbye
I watched the flower die

Your innocence - it sinks back to the earth
The girl you were is buried too... in dirt

You've gone away
You're a stranger to me, stranger to me
Nothing to say
Cause you're a stranger to me, stranger to me now

The butterfly - it lands on a barren grave
I mourn the girl I lost that I could not save

Here we go with the pain again (Oh)
You'll never be the same again (No)
Something had changed in you and it looks like you're never going back
This cold, sad world isn't fair
Fallen victim to it all (Yeah)
You act like we never happened, like there was nothing there
I'm goin' crazy thinking 'bout you every night and day
How you acted so cold
What I was never told
And every time I see your face I think of all the times
That you said you were mine
But it was all a lie

You've gone away
You're a stranger to me, stranger to me
Nothing to say
Cause you're a stranger to me, stranger to me now
Your silence told me all I needed to know
Your actions showed me you're not the girl I thought you were
You've gone away
You're a stranger to me, stranger to me
Nothing to say
Cause you're a stranger to me, stranger to me now
Your silence told me all I needed to know
Your actions showed me you're not the girl I thought you were

A flower dies today in a dream of spring
Oh what a shame I say, such a precious thing
