Lyrics
I saw a stranger
He was wiry
He was handsome
He was handsome
And he was talking in his sleep
He's looking out for me
What a love of me
I saw a stranger
And he saw me
He was handsome
He was dancing
And he swept me off my feet
When he grabbed ahold of me
And the morning set us free
Well, how are you, stranger
And how have you been?
You said
Three Hail Marys for to wash away my sin
But baby, I'm guilty
Silver barrel spinning
Gold teeth shining, guilty
And it's hard to let you in
And I don't know how
She was a stranger on the 47 line
I looked into her big room
And she looked into mine
It was like wе were the samе
It was like we were the same person
I got a stranger
I'm ashamed of
He keeps coming out
He keeps coming out
Every time I dream
Gets angry
(He gets angry and I)
Starts crying
Well, how are you, stranger
And how have you been? You said
"Three Hail Marys for to wash away my sin"
But baby, I'm guilty
Silver barrel spinning
Gold teeth shining, guilty
And it's hard to let you in
And I don't know how
I saw a stranger
Pass me on the street
Her eyes were so like yours
That it took me there
Completely unprepared
When I kissed you on the stairs
O, stranger
She is right here
She's watching me
She's watching me
Like baby, go ahead, go ahead
She really fucked it up this time
But I know you needed friends
And it's alright
Well, how are you, stranger
How have you been?
You said
Three Hail Marys for to wash away my sin
Baby, I'm guilty
Silver barrel spinning
Gold teeth shining, guilty
And it's hard to let you in
And I don't know how
