Stranger
How did you steal my lover’s eyes?
Where has he gone? You buried him inside
He remains possessed now by your icy prescence
A stony stature I cannot recognize
You don’t fool me with your casual tone
Or the way you pretend you care
The man I love is not there
You’re someone else entirely
And you don’t even compare
Don’t tell me this is possible
I could have never been so wrong
No, you were not this person all along
I’ll wait for you to come home, darling
Below your window singing our song
My lover, where have you gone
I’ll meet you at our place
All night long I will wait
You can’t be this person now
This stranger whom I hate
Do not speak to me in his voice
These words he would never say
His life is not a role for you to portray
I won’t listen when you tell me
Things are better off this way
Stranger
You build me up to watch me fall
You are nothing like the person I recall
There’s nothing about you worth loving
And I don’t know you at all
For Joe....
