Sigrid - Strangers

[Verse 1]
Just like in the movies
It starts to rain and we
We're the broken beauties
Blindfolded minds collide and we fall

[Pre-Chorus]
When the curtain drops
Our touch is just a touch
Not like in the movies
Our story's after the end

[Chorus]
Like strangers
Perfect pretenders
We're falling head over heels
For something that ain't real
It could never be us, eh
Just you and I
Strangers
Perfect pretenders
We're falling head over heels
For something that ain't real
It could never be us, eh
Just you and I

[Verse 2]
Memories in photos
Too easy to rewrite
Left as lonely shadows
Holding each other tight and we fall

[Pre-Chorus]
When the curtain drops
Our touch is just a touch
Not like in the movies
Our story's after the end

[Chorus]
Like strangers
Perfect pretenders
We're falling head over heels
For something that ain't real
It could never be us, eh
Just you and I

[Bridge]
Think we got it, but we made up a dream
Cause we've got a pretty look of what we could be, woh
I don't want you, all you want is someone
Going home together to forget we're alone
Think we got it, but we made up a dream
Cause we've got a pretty look of what we could be, woh
I don't want you, all you want is someone
Going home together to forget we're alone
You and I, you and I, you and I, you and I, you and I, you and I
Not like in the movies
You and I, you and I, you and I, you and I, you and I, you and I
Not like in the movies

[Chorus]
Like strangers
Perfect pretenders
We're falling head over heels
For something that ain't real
It could never be us, eh
Just you and I
Strangers
Perfect pretenders
We're falling head over heels
For something that ain't real
It could never be us, eh
Just you and I

[Refrain]
Think we got it, but we made up a dream
Cause we've got a pretty look of what we could be, woh
I don't want you, all you want is someone
Going home together to forget we're alone
Think we got it, but we made up a dream
Cause we've got a pretty look of what we could be, woh
I don't want you, all you want is someone
Going home together to forget we're alone

[Outro]
Strangers
(Think we got it, but we made up a dream
Cause we've got a pretty look of what we could be, woh)
Perfect pretenders
(I don't want you, all you want is someone
Going home together to forget we're alone)
We're falling head over heels
For something that ain't real
(Think we got it, but we made up a dream
Cause we've got a pretty look of what we could be, woh)
It could never be us, eh
(I don't want you, all you want is someone)
Just you and I

Infos: In a recent interview for the British music journalism magazine, NME, Sigrid explains the meaning of

It's about wanting something to be something that it's not. A lot of people – especially people my age – want things to be perfect, and therefore you lie to yourself. For instance, you think, "this romantic relationship is so good," but then it turns out that it's not. You just wanted it to be. It's a really, really sad song. My favourite pop tunes – like 'Dancing on my Own' by Robyn or 'Green Light' by Lorde – are always the ones that makes you wanna cry and dance at the same time.
