You were buying batteries Thursday in the elevator Standing right in front of me Saturday, across the city Same red light, different street You looked over I looked over Neither one of us would speak Maybe this town is smaller Than I thought it was Maybe coincidence Is getting carried away Same stranger Different place There you are With that familiar face I don't know you You don't know me So why do we keep Ending up in the same scene? Same scene... Same same stranger There you there you Monday at the pharmacy You were waiting by the door Wednesday at the laundromat Okay, now this makes four Friday at a restaurant On the other side of town You saw me Started laughing I said, โWhat?โ You said, โNothing.โ Same stranger Different place There you are With that familiar face I don't know you You don't know me So why do we keep Ending up in the same scene? No shared friends No shared address No reason I can see A million people moving And somehow it's you and me This is getting weird. Same stranger Same stranger... Same stranger Different place Now we're laughing When we see each other's face Maybe tomorrow The pattern disappears Or maybe I'll turn the cornerโ There you are... Of course.
