Strangers

Walkin' down the street i don't need to explain
Where i'm headed
Thinkin' 'bout the same old things that i did
Yesterday

That's when i saw her there
Sitting with and empty stare, and i knew
I had to come around, 'cause it beats bein' alone sitting, on the phone
We're just

Strangers
Talking over cigarette smoke at a coffee shop
A couple
Faces
Watching as our lives go by in such a lonely night and i know
That it beats bein' alone as look into her eyes and see the void inside, and she knows
She doesn't have a choice, cause the night is dark and strangers, strangers lurk outside

I sit by her side and ask her what's'er name
She doesn't say
She'd rather talk about
Aaanything else
Although i didn't care
She'd probably just ran away
She now became a stray
A child of the night just like you and I are

Strangers
Talking over cigarette smoke at a coffee shop
A couple
Faces
Watching as our lives go by in such a lonely night and i know
That it beats bein' alone as look into her eyes and see the void inside, and she knows
She doesn't have a choice, cause the night is dark and strangers, strangers lurk outside

I say hello
She says goodbye
And then heads outside
I know there's no point in telling her to stay
'Cause she belongs in the night yeah

Strangers
Walking down opposite sides of the sidewalk, baby our
Faces
Loost in the dark as the shadows cover our backs and now
We're both back where we belong, and the world
It keeps going on
