Why … do you treat me like a stranger Why … is it hard for you to talk to me Why … does it take so long to reach you Why … do we avoid the one thing that will set us free
When … do we try to see eye to eye When … can we finally put hate aside When … is the time for a compromise When … will it be OK just to be alright
Maybe there's somethin' I don't wanna see Always there's somethin' that's hard to feel It's a long way there as flies the crow But if we take that journey maybe we can become Friends … instead of strangers Friends … instead of strangers
Where … is the quiet place we can go Where … we can sit down and chew the fat Where … the love is so plentiful Where … we don't have to hire a diplomat
Why … do you treat me like a stranger Like … somebody that you never new Why … do you treat me like a danger Like … somebody that was comin' after you
Maybe it's a specter out of the past Maybe it's a memory risin' up from the ashes It's a long way there on rocky road But if we take that journey maybe we can become Friends … instead of strangers Friends … instead of strangers
