lyrics

Slowly Like Strangers

You were never really mine
And I was never really yours
We sang together for a time
Shared the chorus, split the verse

At night it was a dream
The whole world would slip away
But tell me now, what is there to hold onto
When the sun comes up and you step off the stage

Slowly like strangers, we slipped into silence
like most lost lovers, went our separate ways
Lovelorn and seeking some sort of solace
reviewing the wreckage, recounting the days

We were victims of sirens
singing some old tune long overplayed
crashed into the rocks together
holding each other, sinking from the weight

I was never really yours
you were never really mine
Now that an ocean divides us
I can feel you fading with the sands of time

Slowly like strangers we slipped into silence
like forgotten photos from bygone days
Seasick and seeking some sort of solace
Lost in these loves we were bound to betray
