Strangers When We Meet Lyrics

She told me Sunday
Baby its over
We cant go on this way
I really love you
but I must live too
She said take care ok?

Please dont look my way
When you see me on the street
We will still be strangers
When we meet

I never really
Thought that you'd give up
Your home and Family
I;ve got my own life
Youve still got your wife
She whispered tenderly

Please dont look my way
When you see me on the street
We will still be strangers when we meet

all throughout this troubled time
Times i wish that you were mine
Spend my nights and days thinking of you
Sometimes lie awake at night
Think of you and its allright
Spend my days and nights
Dreaming of you

She told me sunday,
Baby its over
we cant go on this way
I really love you
but i must live too
She said take care ok?

This is the end of a long and loving affair between a married man and a woman who has longed to have him as hers, but he can't give up his commitments.

I just saw Brokeback Mountain yesterday there are a lot of parellels with this song in that movie.

Great song, long forgotten by most but not by me.

There's a couple of errors in the lyrics. 1.- It says "But i must live too". It should be "But i love him too". 2.- "Spent my days and nights dreaming of you". It should be "Spend my days and nights thinking of you".

The line "she said 'take care, OK'"? always kills me
