Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was sixteen with a rocket
And some sunshine in my pocket
It was how you used words I didn't know
And the way you said my name
And cut up peaches and them brown eyes
Little flame that we pretend doesn't glow
[Verse 2]
You know space and time
Wouldn't let you be mine
But I've come to understand
It's entropy
Wouldn't leave you to me
I'm right back where I began
[Verse 3]
In the arms of a stranger
Pretending it's love
Holding her closely
Remembering your touch
And I'm wrapped around your finger
Even though I'm wrapped up
In the arms of a stranger
Pretending it's love
[Verse 4]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Stranger, stranger
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Stranger, stranger
I'm wrapped around your finger
Stranger, stranger
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Stranger, stranger
[Verse 5]
There were times I think about us
Overcome by the nostalgias
I am on call when you need me, let me know
But we're drifting in a strange way
I'm aware that it's a mistake
If I love you, It's a mistake if I don't
[Verse 6]
You know space and time
Wouldn't let you be mine
But I've come to understand
It's entropy
Wouldn't leave you to me
I'm right back where I began
[Verse 7]
In the arms of a stranger
Pretending it's love
Holding her closely
Remembering your touch
And I'm wrapped around your finger
Even though I'm wrapped up
In the arms of a stranger
Pretending it's love
[Verse 8]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Stranger, stranger
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Stranger, stranger
I'm wrapped around your finger
Stranger, stranger
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Stranger, stranger
[Verse 9]
And she smelled like Michigan
And it felt like lust
And the nostalgia's killing me
And it's all because, oh
[Verse 10]
I'm in the arms of a stranger
Pretending it's love
Holding her closely
Remembering your touch
And I'm wrapped around your finger
Even though I'm wrapped up
In the arms of a stranger
Pretending it's love
[Verse 11]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Stranger, stranger
Holding her closely
Stranger, stranger
And I'm wrapped around your finger
Stranger, stranger
In the arms of a stranger
Pretending it's love
Ooh-ooh-ooh
