You're looking at him 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 got to say goodbye Chorus: It's such a shame when lovers become strangers It's such a shame when you don't know each other anymore 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 (chorus) 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, it's 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 (chorus) It's such a shame when lovers become strangers It's such a shame when you don't have each other anymore
