Strangers Lyrics by Papa Jake

2021

[Verse 1]
It started off so innocent and sweet
It only took a week for you to sweep me off my feet
You said you wanted to keep things lowkey
I said it’s fine it doesn’t bother me
But then you kept distancing yourself
I told you what it did to my mental health
But then you said that’s all on me
But in all honesty

[Chorus]
I don’t wanna be treated like a stranger anymore
When I know we could be so much more & more
I know you don’t feel the same anymore
And I've tried so hard but now I’m not sure
Why do you keep coming to me in my dreams?
(I think about you constantly when I’m asleep)
Now I have no reason to believe
(All thе promises that you said you could keep)

[Verse 2]
It started off like you needеd me
But now it’s gone to you leaving every week
Now in public you just walk by me
But I guess I fell blindly in love
But you won’t find anyone like me
That reacts so kindly when you break their hearts
Not everyone will let you tear them apart from the inside out

[Chorus]
I don’t wanna be treated like a stranger anymore
When I know we could be so much more & more
I know you don’t feel the same anymore
And I've tried so hard but now I’m not sure
Why do you keep coming to me in my dreams?
(I think about you constantly when I’m asleep)
Now I have no reason to believe
(All the promises that you said you could keep)

[Outro]
Now the time has come
For me to let go
Of you now
