Stranger Every Day

I still remember the layout of your parents' house
Even though it's been a decade since you moved out
I still remember how your laugh used to sound
Before you grew and got the new one you have now

I doubt you remember as much about me
But all your secrets that I swore to keep
Are still cherished memories

I'm glad we found the time to meet
But I can't recall
Who I was
How I should act
Now you're here

As we
Pretend to know more about each other than our names
And facts two or more years out of date
"After all this time you're just the same"
But how you've changed
All the new lines upon your face
You're growing stranger and stranger every day

I'd blame our slow separation on time
But I think the both of us know that would be a lie
We both wanted bigger things from life
And we decided losing each other was a reasonable price

In private we sharpened our knives
Waiting and biding our time
'Til at once we struck each others sides
So betrayed
In so much pain
And trying not to cry

I still can't bring myself to like the things you loved
I hate how my mind still thinks of you
When I see the spots we used to haunt

And I know we've both moved on
But part of me still loves you
Or at least the girl who was

Now we
Pretend to know more about each other than our names
And facts two or more years out of date
"After all this time you're just the same"
But how you've changed
All the new lines upon your face
You're growing stranger and stranger every day

Hey hey yeah yeah
Stranger every day
Oh oh

Take me back to the girl I knew
With the hopes and the dreams that she still pursued
When the trees on the Main Street still bore fruit
And I found a best friend in you

I would trade all I have for a those days of youth
Before the world had its way with you
And it tore me up too

But now we've met
And we'll both say with some regret
That we didn't quite forget
To call each other every Thursday afternoon

We're both upset
You used to know me best
Now I don't know how to let you know
That it's no longer true

So I'll
Pretend to share more with my past self than my name
And facts two or more years out of date
After all this time I'm not the same
Oh how I've changed
All the new lines upon my face
I'm growing stranger and stranger every day

Pretend to know more about each other than our names
And facts two or more years out of date
"After all this time you're just the same"
But how you've changed (oh how you've changed, how you've changed)
All the new lines upon your face
You're growing stranger and stranger every day

Take me back to the girl I knew (Pretend to know more about each other)
With the hopes and the dreams that she still pursued (than our names)
When the trees on the Main Street still bore fruit (and facts two or more years out of date)
And I found a best friend in you ("After all this time you're just the same")
I would trade all I have for those days of youth (But how you've changed)
Before the world had its way with you (All the new lines upon your face)
And it tore me up too (You're growing Stranger and stranger every day)
