Strangers

Our bodies lay here side by side But our thoughts have turned the other way We make conversation of two people Who have nothing left to say We're so accustomed to each other we no longer care or bother And there lies the danger You know the size of clothes I wear and you know how I comb my hair But you could know as much about a stranger I can't remember the last time that I really wanted you And we both say there's nothing wrong but it's here in everything we do So we get up from our beds leaving many things unsaid And there lies the danger Many of my words you don't hear and you seldom notice if I'm near But you could know as much about a stranger What went wrong I can't name it find the fault I can't blame it On any one thing We're so used to things this way tomorrow's just like yesterday And there lies the danger You know the color of my eyes and you know the things I despise But you could know as much about a stranger
