Lyrics

Strangers In Bed
(Verse 1)

Baited breath and butterflies
I guess that?s how we started
Then the bills and diapers piled high
I guess that?s how we parted

Our love got lost in old archives
Like a dusty old antique
It?s time we finally realize
It?s time that we concede

(Pre-Chorus)

We let the tides of life erode
That sturdy bridge that joined our souls
Now parted by a sea of rage and blame
Its time we face the truth and the shame that . .

(Chorus)

We?re Strangers in Bed
With our eyes on the walls
And the funny thing is
The more I stare
The less I care
About changing at all

(Verse2)

We settled down
And then we found
There?s too many hats to fill
We?re always wired
Unless we?re tired
Of crankin this windmill

Though we?re just trying to survive
And always going at high speed
We let our love sail out of sight
Never thinking we would be

(Pre-Chorus)

Two parted souls out in the cold
Just waiting for that storm to unfold
Knowing we?re beyond the danger zone
Knowing we are basically alone . . . that

(Chorus)

We?re Strangers in Bed
With our eyes on the walls
And the funny thing is
The more I stare
The less I care
About changing at all

(Bridge)

I remember the sun that batted
Straight through our window
You?d smile and your face would glow
We were on our own little planet
Now we?re two

(Pre-Chorus)

Two parted souls out in the cold
Just waiting for that storm to unfold
Knowing we?re beyond the danger zone
Knowing we are basically alone . . . that

(Chorus)

We?re Strangers in Bed
With our eyes on the walls
And the funny thing is
The more I stare
The less I care
About changing at all

Just strangers in bed . . .
With a bout of contempt

And what makes it worse
the more I gaze
The less I?m dazed
That we?ve come to the end.
We?re strangers in bed
