Strangers
Don't wait for me, life goes on
Don't wait for me, what's done is done
Hey, I heard you went away
I hope you went to somewhere nice
Was it one of the places we planned to go?
Back when we thought there was always going to be time
Now all those things we planned to do
I'm never gonna get to do them with you
You're with somebody else now
What are you thinking about
When you're lying in the dark?
Is there anything sadder, or more profound
Than when lovers go back to being strangers?
So this is the moment where we separate
It's time to tear ourselves apart
We disentangle our lives from each other
Sadly withdraw half our hearts
It's sad and strange, and it will take some time
After holding each for countless nights
But nothing is as strange as...
When we go back to being strangers
What are you doing right now?
Who are you thinking about?
We're under the same sky...
Now all those things we planned to do
I'm never gonna get to do them with you
And I don't know where you are now
We've gone back to being strangers
Funny to think how the world keeps turning
While mine feels like it slowed right down
Cos I never knew what loss was about
Until the day I cleared your things from our house
The words you wrote in the last birthday card
The pair of sneakers you'd keep in my car
All the little things that make up a life
Photograph albums, notes you'd write
But here we are after all this time
You go your way and I go mine
And nothing is as strange as
When we go back to being strangers
Don't wait for me, life goes on
Don't wait for me, what's done is done
Hey, I heard you went away
I hope you went to somewhere nice
Don't wait for me, what's done is done
Hey, I heard you went away
I hope you went to somewhere nice
Was it one of the places we planned to go?
Back when we thought there was always going to be time
Now all those things we planned to do
I'm never gonna get to do them with you
You're with somebody else now
What are you thinking about
When you're lying in the dark?
Is there anything sadder, or more profound
Than when lovers go back to being strangers?
So this is the moment where we separate
It's time to tear ourselves apart
We disentangle our lives from each other
Sadly withdraw half our hearts
It's sad and strange, and it will take some time
After holding each for countless nights
But nothing is as strange as...
When we go back to being strangers
What are you doing right now?
Who are you thinking about?
We're under the same sky...
Now all those things we planned to do
I'm never gonna get to do them with you
And I don't know where you are now
We've gone back to being strangers
Funny to think how the world keeps turning
While mine feels like it slowed right down
Cos I never knew what loss was about
Until the day I cleared your things from our house
The words you wrote in the last birthday card
The pair of sneakers you'd keep in my car
All the little things that make up a life

But here we are after all this time
You go your way and I go mine
And nothing is as strange as
When we go back to being strangers
Don't wait for me, life goes on
Don't wait for me, what's done is done
Hey, I heard you went away
I hope you went to somewhere nice
