Perfect Stranger

Skin and marble from the cold water

You can tell the truth, I swear I won't be mad at you

Feel my hair swirling in the pool

I'm drowning out the room, I've got such a bad attitude

Oh-oh

She's the perfect stranger, oh-oh

Oh-oh

She's the perfect stranger

Sloping shoulders, dip in the mood

I just wanna know if you get in the deep end too

I try to focus, it's nothin' new

My imagination dives right into questioning you

Oh-oh

'Cause she's the perfect stranger, oh-oh

Oh-oh

'Cause she's the perfect stranger

She's the phosphorescence, you could never touch

But you keep burning your hands the way you thought she was

And I'm always darkest in the summer months

But I kept it light for you

But it's never quite enough, ooh-ooh

Always in your eye line, never in your heart

Never quite enough, ooh-ooh

Always on the decline, never lookin' up

Never quite enough

She's omnipresent and that's enough

Her distance means she's always just as close as you'd want

That's how you like it and I should know

'Cause I was once the stranger with the perfect glow

Oh-oh

If you could do me this favor, oh-oh

Oh-oh

Let me be the perfect stranger

Oh-oh-oh

I'm the perfect stranger (She's the perfect stranger)

Oh-oh-oh

I'm the perfect stranger (She's the perfect stranger)
