They say every man’s supposed to love one woman
And every woman’s supposed to love one man
But I saw you at the corner of trust avenue and cheaters lane
Standing too close to a stranger, holding hands
They say every colour can describe an emotion
And that every emotion can be defined by a single word
But this specific feeling I have, I can’t even comprehend
Standing too close to a stranger, holding hands
Better days; I’ve seen better days
Better days; you know I’ve seen better days
They say every river runs to the ocean
And in the end will erode the same mountain from which it came
And this betrayal can’t be forgiven, this betrayal can’t be repented
Standing too close to a stranger, holding hands
They say what you don’t know can’t do you any harm
And you can’t take back what has already been done
Oh I wish I never saw you, or that I could understand
Standing too close to a stranger, holding hands
