We Could Be Strangers Father John Misty

[Verse 1]
She says, “The odds are against him
She won't break his heart"
He says, “You'll lose the one sooner or later
Just being who you are”

[Pre-Chorus]
This conversation's at an impasse
Maybe the future will look brighter undressed

[Chorus]
We could be strangers for one night longer
Save the trysts and tumors for tomorrow
'Cause no one's really better off
No one's really better off alone

[Verse 2]
She says, “No point speeding back to your place
I've got no other plans”
As they lay there bleeding on the freeway
He takes her by the hand

[Pre-Chorus]
“I never wanted to disappoint you
At least I'll never even get the chance to”
