CHER LYRICS - When Lovers Become Strangers

"When Lovers Become Strangers"



You're looking at him from across the room

Wondering just how it all slipped away so soon

You're looking to find some look in his eyes

That will take you back to yesterday



Don't remember the when or the where or why

All you know is that something has changed inside

And you can't bring it back, no matter how you try

You know it's over, you've got to say goodbye



Such a shame when lovers become strangers

Such a shame when you don't know each other any more

And all the memories that you shared are all that's still there

It's such a shame when lovers become strangers



You can't seem to find the right words to say

And it's too late for talking now, anyway

There's no one to blame, it's just not the same

And it's never gonna be the same again, no



So you're trying to figure out what went wrong

Where does the feeling go when the feeling's gone?

And you pray for the strength just to carry on

You've got to let go of someone you've loved so long



It's such a shame when lovers become strangers

Such a shame when you don't know each other any more

And all the memories that you shared are all that's still there

It's such a shame when lovers become strangers



So kiss him goodbye, try to walk away

With your head held high

Think about the good times, don't cry, don't cry

Though it's tearing you apart inside



It's such a shame, such a shame

And you can't bring it back, no matter how you try

You got to let go, you've gotta say goodbye



Such a shame when lovers become strangers

Such a shame when you don't know each other any more

And all the memories that you shared are all that's still there

It's such a shame when lovers become strangers



Such a shame when you don't have each other any more

And all the memories that you shared are all that's still there

It's such a shame when lovers become strangers

Lovers become strangers
