Can We Be Strangers

I'd have skipped that party, yeah I never would've gone
If I could've seen the future, I would've just stayed home
You'd be a name I didn't know and some idle conversation
With a laugh I never loved and lips I never tasted
I don't wanna want you, I don't wanna love you
I don't wanna hate you, or even care enough to
We struck as lovers, we struck out as friends
Is it too much to ask, can we be strangers again?
Sunny Sunday mornings, yeah, they wouldn't hurt so bad
Songs about New Orleans wouldn't make me so damn sad
You wouldn't be that number I deleted seven times
Or that hammer in my chest when someone orders Crown and Sprite
I don't wanna want you, I don't wanna love you
I don't wanna hate you, or even care enough to
We struck out as lovers, we struck out as friends
Is it too much to ask, can we be strangers?
You don't miss some place you've never been
Some face that you ain't ever met
No, you don't have to remember what you ain't ever had to forget
I don't wanna want you, I don't wanna love you
I don't wanna hate you, or even care enough to
We struck out as lovers, we struck as friends
Is it too much to ask, can we be strangers again?
Can we be strangers again?
