Still Strangers Sometimes

[Verse 1] I was geared up for obscurity Excited, most specifically About knowing you'd soon reach for me And I'd be gone You always took me to another place Part childhood, part outer space But the naked truth of our face-to-face It's just not what I want [Chorus] 'Cause even when your body gets that close to mine We're still strangers sometimes We're still strangers sometimes And even as you claim that you can read my mind We're still strangers sometimes We're still strangers sometimes [Verse 2] Love was supposed to help me find myself Not just put me through this private hell That just gets worse each time I tell you What feels wrong Just a glimpse of what's achievable A sympathy unspeakable Has left me a bit unreachable For way too long [Chorus] 'Cause even when your body gets that close to mine We're still strangers sometimes We're still strangers sometimes And even if you're still my Dr. Frankenstein We're still strangers sometimes We're still strangers sometimes [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] You spend enough time with a mystery Its powers start to atrophy So if you can't get to the heart of me Let's just walk away [Chorus] 'Cause even when your body gets that close to mine We're still strangers sometimes We're still strangers sometimes And even as we cross each other's borderlines We're still strangers sometimes We're still strangers sometimes [Outro] We're still strangers sometimes We're still strangers sometimes
