Strangers Lyrics Critique- acoustic song

by Payton C
(Tucson, AZ)

A thousand miles away
Still don’t take the memories away
Keep thinking if I stay busy
Forgetting will just be that easy

Funny thing is when you keep trying to forget
The memories just slowly creep up
Of that dock, of that kiss
Of that first time you said lets do this
And now we’ve come to this
Feeling like strangers in a crowed place

Its like im going through the motions these days
The morning sun isn’t so bright anymore
The clouds keep coming in earlier
Taking away the blue sky
I miss those blue eyes
Us under that firework sky in late july

These days people take their pride and go
Caus we’d rather have silence than rejection
We’ve been learning to stand alone
To scared to actually feel something real

Funny thing is when you keep trying to forget
The memories just slowly creep up
Of those lake walks and rides in your jeep
That moment you took my breath away
And now we’ve come to this
Feeling like strangers in a crowed place

Before you know it July turns to August
I guess that happens when you have someone
It takes away your worries
It hides your fears
It makes you feel wanted

Do I keep running from you
Im so far oh so far
Months are gonna go by
And time just keeps making my heart cry
So come back to me baby come back
Because I don’t wanna forget
Please don’t forget
