Stranger

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You're still a stranger but I know you're good at accents And you'd like to be an actor When you've learnt to speak Italian and French You're still a stranger but I know you hurt your knee When you were hiking in the mountains 'Cause you took too many mushrooms with your friends You're still a stranger But I know that you're the sister of three brothers And you love them like a mother because you're the oldest one You're still a stranger so I know it might sound strange But I sure hope that we're not strangers for too long [Chorus] 'Cause ever since we said goodbye You've been all that's on my mind I want more than two nights in July So, come back, baby Come back and change my life [Verse 2] You're still a stranger but I know that you're a fan Of Sixteen Candles and The Breakfast Club And every other film that John Hughes made You're still a stranger but I feel it in my stomach If you'd let me, I could love you Then my heart would fall as fast as summer rain You're still a stranger but I know you love the 80's For the acid-wash and shoulder-pads That you can't help but dance to Grace Jones songs You're still a stranger so I know it might sound strange But I don't think that we'll be strangers for too long [Chorus] 'Cause ever since we said goodbye You've been all that's on my mind I want more than two nights in July So, come back, baby Come back and change my life Change my life [Post-Chorus] Come back, baby Come back and change my life Change my life [Verse 3] You're still a stranger but I know that you're cold-blooded 'Cause you had to buy a jacket Even though the day was twenty two degrees You're still a stranger but I know you were engaged And that your grandma had to say "Don't rush your lifetime and get married just for me" You're still a stranger but I know when you're in London That you like to ride the buses And your favourite seat is upstairs at the front You're still a stranger so I know that I sound crazy But I hope that us two strangers fall in love [Chorus] 'Cause ever since we said goodbye You've been all that's on my mind I want more than two nights in July So, come back, baby Come back and change my life Change my life [Post-Chorus] Come back, baby Come back and change my life Change my life Change my life Change my life
