Нина Солнцева Чужие (Когда Любовь Заканчивается Молчанием)

We started out as strangers.
Two paths that crossed one day.
How could I know my future
Would find me on the way?
You were closer than my heartbeat.
You were all I'd ever known.
I couldn't face a morning
Or a lifetime on my own.
When did we turn into strangers?
As if love had never been.
Once we breathed for one another.
Now we pass like passing wind.
When did we turn into strangers?
How did all we had fall through?
How could we come face to face
With nothing left to say or do?
You were every breath within me.
You were all the air I knew.
And I thought no force could ever
Come between my heart and you.
We could speak without a whisper.
In a crowd,
I'd find your eyes.
We believed we'd last forever.
Never thought we'd say goodbye.
Now we're nothing more than strangers.
As if love had never been.
Once we breathed for one another.
Now we pass like passing wind.
Now we're nothing more than strangers.
All we built is blown away.
Once we held a world between us.
Now there's nothing left to say.
We grew tired of truly listening.
Found it harder to forgive.
Left so many words unspoken
In the home where love once lived.
And our silence tore us open.
Left a gulf we couldn't cross.
Hearts that used to beat together
Never knew how much we'd lost.
Now we're nothing more than strangers.
Back to where we used to be.
Once no two were ever closer.
Now you don't belong with me.
Now we're nothing more than strangers.
But the heart still feels the pain.
Did we meet and fall so deeply
Just to wake up
Strangers again?
The cruelest thing is seeing
A stranger in those eyes.
The ones you lived and breathed for.
The ones that were your life.
