You Could Know as Much About a Stranger

Our bodies lay here side by side

But our thoughts have turned the other way

We make the conversation of two people who have nothing left to say

We’re so accustomed to each other we no longer care or bother

And there lies the danger

You know the style of clothes I wear and you know how I comb my hair

But you could know as much about a stranger

I can’t remember the last time that I really wanted you

And we both say nothing’s wrong but its here in everything we do

So we get up from our bed leaving many things unsaid

And there lies the danger

Many of my words you don’t hear and you seldom notice if I’m near

But you could know as much about a stranger

What went wrong I can’t name it find the fault I can’t blame it

On any one thing

We’re so used to things this way tomorrow’s just like yesterday

And there lies the danger

You know the color of my eyes you know the things that I despise

But you could know as much about a stranger
