The best of strangers

The best of friends, the best of lovers
That's what we used to be
I just wish we'd ended up the way we started out
From one little room where we loved each other
To this big two storey house
We wanted the best, I'm afraid that's what we've got now

We're the best of strangers
No-one could do it any better
We live here separately together
We're the best of strangers
We share a ceiling and a floor
But there's no feeling any more
We're the best of strangers

We go to bed, we turn out the light
We stare at different walls
And most of the time we don't even say goodnight
I don't touch you, you don't touch me
Except passing in the hall
And then when we do we both apologise

We're the best of strangers
No-one could do it any better
We live here separately together
We're the best of strangers
We share a ceiling and a floor
But there's no feeling any more
We're the best of strangers
We're the best of strangers
We're the best of strangers
