We're just a pair of old sneakers   Stringin' each other along   Sometimes I feel just like a heel   'Cause I know in my soul, that it's wrong      We're just a pair of old sneakers   Kickin' each other around   Eight times a week, we play 'hide an' cheat'   'Til we've run that game in the ground      We're just a pair of old sneakers   We know that cheatin' is wrong   We're just a pair of old sneakers   And we've been in the closet too long      We're just a pair of old sneakers   Worn out an' comin' unglued   Both wearin' rings, feelin' ashamed   Tryin' to run from the truth      We're just a pair of old sneakers   And nothin' can tear us apart   Living the lie and Lord knows we've tried   To stop walking on each other's heart      We're just a pair of old sneakers   We know that cheatin' is wrong   We're just a pair of old sneakers   And we've been in the closet too long      We're just a pair of old sneakers   And we've been in the closet too long
