Strangers
Aishi Lyrics

Now I'm walking home alone
Aishi is now walking alone on the same streets where she used to walk with her beloved.

Down the streets we used to walk before
Aishi is reminiscing the past moments that she shared with her beloved while she is walking down these streets.

And I'm trying to figure out
Aishi is trying to figure out what her beloved would say if she showed up at his door.

What you'd say if I showed up at your door
Aishi is thinking about the reaction of her beloved if she went to see him at his place.

Would you think that I'm trying to win you back
Aishi is thinking about what her beloved would interpret her visit as – whether she is trying to get back together or not.

And think I wanted more?
Aishi is thinking if her beloved would think that she is visiting him to pursue something more than just talking.

I just wanna talk to you
Aishi is clear about her intentions of just wanting to talk with her beloved.

And I've been taking one step forward
Aishi has been trying to move forward in life after her beloved left her.

And going two steps backwards since the day you left
But despite her efforts, Aishi feels as if she's been going backwards since the day he left her.

And I've been running through it all in my mind
Aishi has been thinking about everything since the day he left, and even now she can't stop thinking about it.

Oh there is nothing to regret
Despite everything that happened between them, Aishi doesn't regret anything.

Oh have you had enough time honey, Won't you tell me now if you're ready yet
Aishi is asking her beloved if he has had enough time and if he is ready to talk to her now.

But you wanna be strangers, I can't have that
Aishi doesn't want her beloved to be strangers with her, but he seems to want that.

I'll be standing at your door, take your stuff back
If her beloved keeps refusing to talk, Aishi will go to his place and return his things.

So avoid me, call me crazy
Aishi knows that everyone around her (even her beloved) thinks that she is crazy for trying to reconnect and that they are avoiding her because of this.

I'll be looking through the crowds thinking maybe that you'll see me
Aishi will be in the crowds hoping that her beloved will see her and talk to her.

You saw me, You saw me
Once again, Aishi hopes that her beloved will talk to her because he saw her in the crowds.

But you go and turn your back 'cause you saw me
But her beloved turns away from her every time he sees her in the crowds.

Thinking that I could call you up to say hello maybe once or twice
Aishi is hopeful that she can call her beloved once or twice just to say hello.

And now my friends are on your side, Oh they keep on telling me that you were right
All her friends are on her beloved's side and keep telling Aishi that he was right to leave her.

But I'm the type to keep on calling, Hoping that someday you'll change your mind
However, Aishi is not the kind of person who gives up easily, and she will keep calling him because she is hoping that he'll change his mind someday.

But you go and turn your back on me now
But even now, her beloved keeps turning his back on her and refusing to talk to her.

You wanna be strangers
Her beloved seems to want them to be strangers even though Aishi clearly doesn't want that.
