Stranger

I think I'd rather fall in love with a stranger
Than deal with all the ways I'm not like her
I guess I've already done that
But it's hard to explain (It's hard to explain)

And you're dressed so nice even though
You're barely wearing anything
And I'm pressed to not be tripping over you
If I was a bit older

Oh, and it's so much stranger now than it used to be
And I don't exactly know what I'm feeling
You look so cool with your hair dyed black
Oh, but I think I'll hold it back

I think I'd rather fall in love with a stranger
Than deal with the weeks on end thinking about her
Besides, all we have in common nowadays is the weather
Let me explain

And my chest is beating louder though
It's barely feeling anything
And I best not ever be falling over you

Oh, and it's so much stranger now than it used to be
And I don't exactly know what I'm feeling
You look so cool with your hair dyed black
Oh, but I think I'll hold it back
Oh, and it's so much stranger now than it should be
And I can't discern the thoughts from the feelings
You look so good with your hair tied up
Oh, but I think I think too much

And if I tried to know you better
Well, then we wouldn't be strangers

And if I tried to know you better
I'm sure it wouldn't work
It wouldn't make sense
But I'll whisper it over and over again

Oh, and it's so much stranger now than it used to be
And I don't exactly know what I'm feeling
You look so cool with your hair dyed black
Oh, but I think I'll hold it back
Oh, and it's so much stranger now than it should be
And I can't discern the thoughts from the feelings
You look so good with your hair tied up
Oh, but I think I think too much

I'll admit it's a bit embarrassing
That I think I have a thing for girls who can sing
And man, it's not about the timing

It's so much stranger now than it used to be
And I don't exactly know what I'm feeling
You seem so sweet, but don't look at me
For I can hardly speak
