As of lately we're not happy together

Everything is wrong that used to be so right

Pretty words like I love you we take for granted

We've even stopped kissing good morning and good night

We don't dress up anymore for each other

We don't hold hands beneath the table anymore

When romance dies the honeymoon's all over

When the new wears off that's when love walks out the door



Now I know why lovers turn to strangers

We've lost that so-good feeling that we had so much of

Yes I know why lovers turn to strangers

When they stop doing the things that make them fall in love



Now that we know what's the matter with each other

This love affair don't ever had to end

If we practice what we're preaching on each other

Then maybe strangers can be lovers once again

Now I know why lovers turn...
