Stranger In My Life

Suddenly a stranger entered my life

Like I pictured her to be

Started my emotions running free

Oh, just like the waters in the sea

As she looked at me with a smile so sincere

My heart started to sing in a voice, I'm sure she could hear

I reached out for a tender loving kiss

Only to find my love didn't even exist, oh baby

I then realized it was just a dream

The candlelight burning such a radiant beam

Oh how I yearned for this dream to come true

For just one exciting moment with someone like you

But as I sat there with tears falling from my eyes

I seemed to dream a thousand and one sighs

Yeah, hope was passing by with a slow unhappy pace

And all there was for me was the bitterest taste

Oh baby, stranger in my life, surely it was

Stranger in my life, oh baby

But as I sat there, tears falling from my eyes

The stranger in my life reached out

Honey reached out for me

And opened my world of loneliness with a magical kiss

Stranger in my life, tell you she's so fine

Stranger in my life, she's wonderful

Stranger in my life, telling you she's fine

Stranger in my life
