Lyrics Kris Kristofferson

Kris Kristofferson

Stranger

Maybe she was smilin' in the mirror

Maybe I was too, 'cause I was stoned

Singin' every sad song on the juke-box one more time

Honey, they were hittin' close to home

And I said - Maybe this'll make you think I'm crazy

Honey, don't feel lonesome if you do

But if you wanna make a young man happy one more time

I'd sure like to spend the night with you

And she said - Stranger

Shut out the light and lead me

Somewhere - shut out the shadows, too

And while we lay there, makin' believe you love me

Stranger, could I believe in you

Maybe you got all you got together

Maybe you keep rollin' like a stone

Maybe some old lonesome song'll take you by surprise

And leave you just a little more alone

Singing - Stranger

Shut out the light and lead me

Somewhere - shut out the shadows, too

And while we lay there, makin' believe you love me

Stranger, could I believe in you

Keep Singing - Stranger

Shut out the light and lead me

Somewhere - shut out the shadows, too

And while we lay there, makin' believe you love me

Stranger, could I believe in you
