Seesaw going up and down

You jump off and I come crashing down

How hard could it really be

For you to find something nice to say to me?

Maybe you'll just take time

For you to look me straight in the eye

I don't know why you treat me this way

Like I'm a criminal (criminal)

I say...

Oh, isn't love strange?

Oh, as it starts to change

Oh, lovers and friends

Go back to being strangers again.

You were someone that I knew

From being at the same place our friends go to

I like how you didn't really care

If anyone saw us making out over there.

Eventually, you lost that fire

Until she looked at you with desire?

I don't know why you treat me this way

Like I'm a criminal

You say.

Oh, isn't that strange?

Oh, you know it's bound to change

Oh, lovers and friends

Go back to being strangers again.

Say hello, say goodbye

A hundred times in your life

It's for the best, but it's still so sad

A little more understanding wouldn't be so bad.

Oh, you know it's bound to change

Oh, lovers and friends

Go back, go back

Oh, isn't that strange?

Oh, you know it's bound to change

Oh, lovers and friends

Go back to being strangers

Being strangers again.
