We Were Lovers lyrics

We meet inside the cafe
The air is thick, like hospital
Shuck by the gold, on your fingers
We were lovers

They leave the thoughts, that we surface
Those hands were mine

And now our love has been forgotten
Like you, it was never there
We're just sitting here like strangers
You gave me yourself, for just a little while
And it was you, it was really you

Staring into my coffee
It is not black, just a shade of brown
Too scared to let, our eyes meet
What will we see?

And now our love has been forgotten
Like you, it was never there
We're just sitting here like strangers
You gave me yourself, for just a little while
And it was you, really you

And now our love has been forgotten
Like you, it was never there
We're just sitting here like strangers
You gave me yourself, for just a little while
And it was you, really you

The space between us
Will not be bleak
Oceans and past light
We were lovers
