You´re looking at him 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 got to say goodbye

Chorus:

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 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

(chorus)

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, it´s 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

(chorus)

It´s such a shame when lovers become strangers
It´s such a shame when you don´t have each other anymore
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
