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 color 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; better days
Better days; you know I've seen better days


They say every river runs to the ocean
And in the end erodes the 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 no harm
And you can't take back what's already been done
Oh I wish I'd never seen you, or that I could understand

Standing too close to a stranger, holding hands
