Lyrics
How did you become a stranger?
Threw out your letters
Picked up pieces of our past
Your scent on the pillow
Is still around but it?s fading fast
How long you been thinking
You and me don?t fit in
Can?t believe you?re leaving
Can?t believe that you?ve chosen him
Chorus:
Swore that I heard wedding bells
But never danger that I could tell
How did you become a stranger
When I knew you so well?
Them crocodile tears there just
Streaming down your chin
Hard to tell where the lies stop
And the truth begins
What?s his name anyway?
My skin would surely crawl
Even though I can?t look at you
If he happens to touch you at all
Chorus:
Swore that I heard wedding bells
But never danger that I could tell
How did you become a stranger
When I knew you so well?
Bridge:
And would it have made a difference
If I?d acted any different
You acted just like all was well
And all I heard was wedding bells
