Strangers in the Street

Saw the night give way where the light was golden So I took my leave of all that I was holding Darling, come the day when your nightmares fall I'll be on that first plane home, and we'll outrun them all Well, I guess it's sweet We still live like strangers in the street It's the cruelest thing when the word is spoken I swear it's a sin to see you heartbroken Darling, come the day it's too much to breathe I'll hold this space for you, and I won't let you leave I will keep the beat We'll still move like strangers in the street Darling, come the time when you slip away I'll be that whispered word that hangs around your doorway Our tale complete We'll still dance like strangers in the street
