Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You still park in my old driveway Engine off But you don't call I see pictures of your new place Same old laugh upon your wall I still know your brother’s birthday Where you hide when it gets hard But we'd pass each other downtown Like a couple strangers in the dark [Chorus] We’re just strangers with memories Carrying names we don't use You were home You were everything Now I’m someone you once knew All the colors turned to quiet All the comfort turned to grief We’re just strangers with memories And they’re all that’s left of you and me [Verse 2] Your mug’s still in my cupboard Lipstick ghost along the rim I keep saying I should toss it Then I pour my coffee in Friends still ask about you sometimes I just shrug and change the scene How’d we go from sharing secrets To pretending we don’t mean a thing? [Chorus] We’re just strangers with memories Carrying names we don't use You were home You were everything Now I’m someone you once knew All the colors turned to quiet All the comfort turned to grief We’re just strangers with memories And they’re all that’s left of you and me [Bridge] If I saw you in a grocery line Would we talk or check our phones? Is it kinder keeping distance Than admitting we’re alone? I replay the final argument Every word Each slammed door sound Funny how we know the ending But still get lost on this same ground [Chorus] We’re just strangers with memories Carrying names we don't use You were home You were everything Now I’m someone you once knew All the colors turned to quiet All the comfort turned to grief We’re just strangers with memories Strangers with memories And they’re all that’s left of you and me
