Verse: Well we all have a face that we hide away forever
And we take them out and show ourselves
When everyone has gone
Some are satin some are steel
Some are silk and some are leather
They're the faces of the stranger
But we love to try them on
Verse(B): Well we all fall in love but we disregard the danger
Though we share so many secrets
There are some we never tell
Why were you so surprised that you never saw the stranger
Did you ever let your lover see the stranger in yourself?
Chorus: Don't be afraid to try again
Everyone goes south every now and then
You've done it, why can't someone else?
You should know by now, you've been there yourself
Verse: Once I used to believe I was such a great romancer
Then I came home to a woman that I could not recognize
When I pressed her for a reason she refused to even answer
That was then I felt the stranger
Kick me right between the eyes
THE STRANGER (pg. 2)
Verse B
Chorus
Verse: You may never understand how the stranger is inspired
But he isn't always evil and he is not always wrong
Though you drown in good intentions
You will never quench the fire
You'll give in to your desire
When the stranger comes along
