Stranger

In the arms of a stranger I once knew
Try to keep you close but what's the use
I hold you tight but you're a million miles away
As much as I want this
I know neither of us should stay

With just one touch I thought that I was sold
But that same touch has grown to be so cold
I wish you'd let me be your everything
But as much as I try
I know I can't find a dying flame

The other day I drove past your old place
I couldn't stop the tear streams down my face
And in the moments when I hear our favorite songs
I can barely get through them
Not really knowing what went wrong

I can't forget those nights
When you begged to stay by my side
Now all my notes are lonely
And sparks ignited when your eyes met mine
Now your look is so empty
And you're all but gone
So I know I need to move on
But hurts to even try
It hurts to even try

In the arms of a stranger I once knew
Try to keep you close but what's the use
I hold you tight but you're a million miles away
As much as I want this
I know neither of us should stay
