Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't misunderstand
We are only strangers
On our way to someone else
To someplace we forgot
[Verse 2]
Don't mistake my smile
It just means I'm lonely
[Instrumental]
Love me 'til this day has passed
And then forget we met
[Refrain]
We're just stealing time
In some secret place
Yielding to a soft wind day
To love the pain away
[Verse 3]
Don't misunderstand
You are no concern of mine
But in case you're free sometime
And need some time
With me sometime
To hold my hand
Then I will understand
Woah
[Instrumental]
We're just stealing time
In some secret place
Yielding to a soft wind day
To love the pain away
[Outro]
Don't misunderstand
You are no concern of mine
But in case you're free sometime
And need some time
With me sometime
To hold my hand
Then keep me in your plan
[Instrumental]
I could be your man
[Instrumental]
Don't misunderstand
