Lyrics Got my cousin's Christmas card The usual picture by the fireplace Looks like the kids have grown some I wouldn't know them anyway He's packing up the family And moving down the interstate I could say it doesn't matter I've never been there anyway Chorus: I can see our lives are changing By the lines in my address book In a family of strangers We are connected, but off the hook I remember how we used to play Back when we were little things Chasing ghost ships out my window I got to know their bikes & swings We've seen each other dressed in black We've seen each other dressed in white We've never seen the blue or grey We've never laughed all thru the night Chorus I think we really mean it when we say "We've got to get together someday" As we trade numbers and say our goodbyes I wonder if they're happy in their lives I wish we could be this true family I could know them and they could know me But we've got our own stories We've got our own friends When we are together we try to pretend... In a family of strangers
