Talking to a Stranger (With Mary Chapin Carpenter)

I can't sit and listen to you talkin' like you're talkin' to a stranger
Giving me the run around is soon to put the love we found in danger
I just wanna spend another night together
Hold you in my arms and make it last forever
But every time I talk to you I feel like I'm talkin' to a stranger

Starin' out my window at the street below, I think I see you passing
I wanna know what's going on when you're alone but I'm afraid of asking
I don't wanna spend another night without you
I close my eyes and all I do is think about you
And every time I talk to you I feel like I'm talkin' to a stranger

What you gonna do? It's really up to you this time
I think you made it clear, there's something missing here
I don't understand it, I can't read your mind

Now you don't have to be polite and act so right to make yourself appealing
I think I know you well enough to see it's just to cover up your feelings
Everything between us seems to be so formal
And all I want to do is bring it back to normal
But every time I talk to you I feel like I'm talkin' to

Every time I talk to you I feel like I'm talkin' to
Every time I talk to you I feel like I'm talkin' to a stranger
Talkin' to a stranger
