When it's all and fear we say goodbye.
No one knows the road we take or questions why.
Stranger you are, you bringer of sadness
A stranger whose back we all must cross
Leave us for now and return another day
When only one friend we have lost.
The sorrow when strangers part is all pretend,
A message that no one has the strength to send.
Forever is a long time to have to wait
When not a job a friend should make arrives today.
Thoughts fill my mind, a voice cries within me
It taunts me with things that I can't say
What words will we use to fill up the silence
When each of us has gone a separate way?
Sorrow when strangers part is all pretend,
A message that no one has the strength to send.
The sorrow when strangers part, it's all pretend.
The sorrow when strangers part is all pretend.
