Like Strangers
Love's Renewal: Rekindling Hearts Beyond the Strangeness
Lyrics
Like strangers
Expressing a sense of unfamiliarity or distance
That's what we are
Stating the current state of the relationship
Darling
An affectionate term used for the partner
How can lovers
Questioning how two people in love can separate
Tear apart so far?
Expressing the emotional distance between them
Like strangers
Reiterating the feeling of being unfamiliar
How can this be?
Expressing disbelief or confusion about the situation
Only days ago
Highlighting the recentness of their love
We loved so tenderly
Recalling past tender moments
I love you
Declaring love
Truly I do
Asserting the genuineness of the love
And I hope
Expressing a wish or desire
Deep in your heart
Desiring reciprocation of love
You love me too
Desire for mutual affection
Let's forget that we've been angry
Proposing to forget past arguments
Let's be lovers just as before
Desiring to return to the past relationship
And swear not to be like strangers
Commitment to not being distant or unfamiliar
Anymore
Rejection of the state of being strangers
(Like strangers)
Repetition of feeling distant or unfamiliar
It seemed like only yesterday we belonged to each other
Remembering belonging together in the past
(That's what we are)
Restating the current situation
We shared the beauty of the stars
Recollection of shared beautiful moments
That covered our nights
Remembrance of shared experiences
And the golden morning sun gave warmth to your lips
Describing a romantic moment in the morning
As they kissed away my sleep
Recalling intimate gestures
(Tear apart so far?)
Questioning the distance despite the constancy of elements
The stars are still there every night
Observing the consistent presence of familiar elements
But I could swear they're substitutes
Perceiving a change in familiarity despite consistency
(Like strangers)
Reiteration of feeling distant or unfamiliar
And the sun rise sin a different world
Noticing a change in the surroundings
(How could this be?)
Expressing disbelief or confusion about the situation
You know
Personal belief in the endurance of true love
I believe that true love never really dies
Belief in the perpetuity of genuine love
(Only days ago)
Highlighting the recentness of their love
So if we have to continue loving each other
Desiring to continue the love despite challenges
Let's do it together (So tenderly)
Desiring unity in continuing love
I love you
Reiteration of love
Truly I do
Asserting the genuineness of the love
And I hope
Expressing a wish or desire
Deep in your heart
Desiring reciprocation of love
You love me too
Desire for mutual affection
Let's forget that we've been angry
Proposing to forget past arguments
Let's be lovers just as before
Desiring to return to the past relationship
And swear not to be like strangers
Commitment to not being distant or unfamiliar
Anymore
Rejection of the state of being strangers
Let's swear not to be like strangers
Final commitment to not being distant or unfamiliar
Anymore
Rejection of the state of being strangers
