Barely Strangers by Jake Bernard

5 years gone by, since we gave it one more try
Flames died ground was white, silence spoke for you and I
No change, still estranged, even the white blankets remain
Feb 15 in the 2-1-5, still lookin for my Valentine

But before you say goodbye
Take your jacket off this time
You haven't called me for awhile
Barely strangers in our eyes

Who was luckier than I, waking with you by my side
Flip back to swing sets in the sand, God knows you want to start again
Comfortable around you I held your hand and got so high
Before our hearts were trusted friends, never thought that kinda love would end
I'm still tryin'

But before you say goodbye
Take your jacket off this time
You haven't called me for awhile
Barely strangers in our eyes

Am I still a shadow of my old ways
Saying goodbye on my driveway
Can't help but say it's true, I know I wish the best for you
Even though it's hard to do

So before you say goodbye,
Brush the dust off take your time
I don’t wanna say goodnight
And wake up strangers in the morning light
Search for the friend I hope I’ll find
Keep hoping you’ll be there sometime
