Lee Hazlewood
Strangers, Lovers, Friends
[Verse:]
Strangers
Sit across from each other
Smile across to each other
Reach across for each other
Strangers
Dance and stare at each other
Could they care for each other
Why do they bother
He thinks he sees something in her he needs
She hopes she finds something in him she needs
Or they'll stay strangers
Lovers
Holdings hands with each other
Making plans for each other
Ain't they grand for each other
Lovers
They're a part of each other
Soul and heart of each other
Why do they bother
You've done it all, so then what's new
You're so much him, he's so much you
And you're lovers
Friends
Sitting here by each other
Afraid to stare at each other
We're so fair with each other
Friends
We still speak to each other
Once a week to each other
Why do we bother
Too much too soon, too sure too wise
God bless us all, we're so civilized
And we're still friends
Friends
