Strangers by Nature (Adele)

I'll be taking flowers to the cemetery of my heart

For all of my lovers in the present and in the dark

Every anniversary, I'll pay respects and say I'm sorry

For they never stood a chance as if they could

When no one knows what it's like to be us

I've never seen the sky this color before

It's like I'm noticing everythin' a little bit more

Now that all the dust has settled

I rebut all my rebuttals

No one knows what it's like to be us

Strangers by nature

Will I ever get there?

Oh, I hope that someday I'll learn

To nurture what I've done

Alright then, I'm ready
