Lyrics Like Strangers (Comme des étrangers / English Version 2) - Charles Aznavour

What happened to our love
Are we affraid to speak
About the days gone by
When we knew happiness
What are we thinking of
What is it that we seek
No matter how we try
We're facing loneliness
Although we're living here
We're living here like strangers
How did it ever start
Why did our love go wrong
We hardly ever smile
As if we're fearing danger
What happened to our heart
And how can we go wrong
There's nothing left of all
The joys that once we knew
Nothing left for us to do
What's the use of even trying
When our love is slowly dying
And we're strangers to each other now
What happened to the lovers
Everyone admired
Who put out that blazing fire
Why didn't we see the danger
Why do we have to live like strangers
And what's the good of regretting now
Is it 'cos we're too weak
To face reality
We keep ignoring all
The things we feel inside
Some wounds are very deep
Others futility
Whose bluff are we to call
When we know what we hide
Why do we play for time
When time is so tormenting
Why are we holding on
To something that is gone
But who is kidding who
And who are we tormenting
By living in the past
Yet knowing love is gone
There's nothing left of all
The joys that once we knew
Nothing left for us to do
What's the use of even trying
When our love is slowly dying
And we're strangers to each other now
What happened to the lovers
Everyone admired
Who put out that blazing fire
Why didn't we see the danger
Why do we have to live like strangers
And what's the good of regretting now
