We started as strangers.
We fell and became lovers.
We started with a, "Hi,"
Ended with a lie.
The time ran so fast.
Now we're just part of the past.
The butterflies I once felt in my belly
Turned into a feeling of melancholy.
Those dreams I dreamed won't come true,
For we fell apart out of the blue.
There will be no such thing as "we,"
Because starting from now, it's just "me."
We ended being lovers.
Now we're back to strangers.
We ended with a lie.
Now we couldn't even say, "Hi."
