Lyrics of Close As Strangers by 5 Seconds of Summer
verse
Six weeks since I've been away
And now you're sayin' everything has changed
And I'm afraid that I might be losing you
And every night that we spend alone
It kills me thinking of you on your own
And I wish I was back home next to you
pre-chorus
Oh, everyday
You feel a little bit further away
And I don't know what to say
chorus
Are we wasting time
Talking on a broken line?
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers
Won't give up
Even though it hurts so much
Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces
Now it feels we're as close as strangers
verse
Late night calls and another text
Is this as good as we're gonna get?
Another timezone taking me away from you
Living dreams in fluorescent lights
While you and I are running out of time
But you know that I'll always wait for you
pre-chorus
Oh, everyday
You feel a little bit further away
And I don't know what to say
chorus
Are we wasting time
Talking on a broken line?
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers
Won't give up
Even though it hurts so much
Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces
Now it feels we're as close as strangers
bridge
On the phone
I can tell that you wanna move on
Through the tears
I can hear that I shouldn't have gone
Every day gets harder to stay away from you
So tell me
chorus
Are we wasting time
Talking on a broken line?
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers
chorus
Wasting time (wasting time)
Talking on a broken line (broken line)
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers
Won't give up (won't give up)
Even though it hurts so much (hurts so much)
Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces
Now it feels we're as close as strangers
outro
Six months since I went away
And I know everything has changed
But tomorrow I'll be coming back to you
