When Lovers Become Strangers

You're looking at him from across the room Wondering just how it all slipped away so soon You're looking 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 Such a shame when lovers become strangers Such a shame when you don't know each other any more And all the memories that you shared 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, no 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 Such a shame when you don't know each other any more And all the memories that you shared are all that's still there It's such a shame when lovers become strangers So kiss him goodbye, try to walk away With your 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, such a shame And you can't bring it back, no matter how you try You got to let go, you've gotta say goodbye Such a shame when lovers become strangers Such a shame when you don't know each other any more And all the memories that you shared are all that's still there It's such a shame when lovers become strangers Such a shame when you don't have each other any more And all the memories that you shared are all that's still there It's such a shame when lovers become strangers Lovers become strangers --- When Lovers Become Strangers - Cher
