Since We Were Strangers

Well, we could stay up all night talking, That’s the contact I have been craving A meaningful conversation, something a little less draining When I stay out past midnight, I wake up dehydrated Mouth feels like a dustpan, face feels like an ashtray I wish that this New Year’s Eve was as happy as last year We tried to go out, but we ended up back here It’s been a while since we went out dancing, since we got talking, since we were Strangers I need a shave and I need to get a haircut I’ve got a two-piece suit, but you know it isn’t tailored I need my shoes shined, shirt ironed, I need some time to get myself together I need a train ticket in my pocket, then I’ll travel across the country and go see you again I wish that this New Year’s Eve was as happy as last year We tried to go out, but we ended up back here It’s been a while since we went out dancing, since we got talking, since we were strangers But sometimes strange things happen
