i wanted you to know
the beauty of the way that we are living
as people come and go
they always leave us with something

it may not be so good
but we got marks
we can keep
and yes we got away
cause you will find
we're still here

why do you look so strange?
i always thought of you
as being one of us so it must be true
why do you look so strange?
i always thought of you
as being one of us

i wanted you to know
the beauty of the way that we are losing
we'll keep an open space
there's always room for that someone
or just anyone

what's here and what is good
we will throw away some day
and in times of looking back
you will find
you're like me

why do you look so strange?
i always thought of you
as being one of us so it must be true
why do you look so strange?
i always thought of you
as being one of us
