When Lovers Become Strangers

You're looking at him from across the room
Wondering just how it all slipped away so soon
You'relooking to find some look in his eyes
That will take you back to yesterday
Don't remember the when or the where or why
All you know is that something has changed inside
And you can't bring it back no matter how you try
You know it's over
You've got to say goodbye

[Refrén:]
It's such a shame when lovers become strangers
It's such a shame when you don't know each other anymore
And all the memories that you share
Are all that's still there
It's such a shame when lovers become strangers

You can't seem to find the right words to say
And it's too late for talking now anyway
There's no one to blame, it's just not the same
And it's never gonna be the same again
So, you're trying to figure out what went wrong
Where does the feeling go when the feeling's gone
And you pray for the strength just to carry on
You've got to let go of someone you've loved so long

It's such a shame when lovers become strangers
It's such a shame when you don't know each other anymore
And all the memories that you share
Are all that's still there
It's such a shame when lovers become strangers

So kiss him goodbye
Try to walk away with you head held high
Think about the good times
Don't cry, don't cry
Though it's tearing you apart inside
It's such a shame
It's such a shame
And you can't bring it back no matter how you try
You know it's over
You've got to say goodbye

It's such a shame when lovers become strangers
It's such a shame when you don't know each other anymore
And all the memories that you share
Are all that's still there
It's such a shame when lovers become strangers
