[Verse 1]
Wanna be close to you
'Cause it feels like paradise, slowly lost its view
Now I'm goin' blind from the red lights
Keepin' us away from all we need to say
All we need to say to each other
Wanna be close to you, ooh, ooh, ah-ah, ah-ah

[Pre-Chorus]
So I run straight out the backdoor
Try my best to catch my breath
'Cause my heart can't take it no more
Maybe we are at the end

[Chorus]
When did we become strangers, strangers?
Felt it like it was overnight
You were my second nature, nature
Swear that it was us for life
And baby, can we pretend it's the first time we met
Talk until sunset and forget that we turned to strangers, strangers again?

[Verse 2]
Now I'm past the point
Of burnin' up all our pictures
Wanna cut the noise
I'm not reminiscin' all the words you used to say
[Pre-Chorus]
So I run straight out the backdoor (Backdoor)
Try my best to catch my breath
'Cause my heart can't take it no more
Maybe we are at the end

[Chorus]
When did we become strangers, strangers?
Felt it like it was overnight
You were my second nature, nature
Swear that it was us for life
And baby, can we pretend it's the first time we met
Talk until sunset and forget that we turned to strangers, strangers again?

[Bridge]
As I drive away at midnight
Oh, I know it's for the best
'Cause it still hurts to tell you, "Goodbye"
But we know we're at the end

[Chorus]
When did we become strangers, strangers? (Strangers)
Felt it like it was overnight (Felt it like it was overnight)
You were my second nature, nature (Yeah)
Swear that it was us for life
And baby, can we pretend it's the first time we met
Talk until sunset and forget that we turned to strangers, strangers again?
