STRANGER TO ME

(Old Lost John / Thunberg)
July, 2006
STRANGER TO ME

Oh baby oh baby that look on your face
Makin' love with your boots on, the top round your waiste
You're ready to come, you'll be ready to leave
Just don't ever turn into a stranger to me

Well your guards were off duty and your heart was in heat
But flashing red lights got you back on your feet
Too good to be true and too great to believe
Just don't ever turn into a stranger to me

Yes I know I been knockin' a little too hard
Just a little too eager to play every card
Though I know I should treat you with care and with ease
So you won't turn into a stranger to me

I'll retreat to the shadows and linger awhile
I'll talk sense to my heart then I'll come back whenever you're ready
And I'll come back in style

But baby oh baby I learn all the time
And I won't turn against you or leave you behind
We may settle for less than true lovers need
But don't ever turn inte a stranger to me

So tune up your Tanglewood, try out your voice
I'll bring my mandolin if I have a choice
Friends will be friends and so did we agree
Just don't ever turn into a stranger to me
