lyrics

One day you love me, one day you don't
I can never tell if you will or you won't
You're like a stranger to me

I remember when it was all pressed-in-hand poems
Desperado, you were always free to go
Don't gotta be a stranger to me

And you've run me ragged, lover
From all your stagnant running
Always on the verge
Of gone

And we've known each other now
Long enough
So why you a stranger to me?

You wave me in one hand, your eyes they laugh
You got the wool pulled over mine, you work fast
And you're a stranger to me

Lead me down your primrose path
Well maybe I'm the fool who's just finding out last
That you're a stranger to me

And you've run me ragged, lover
With all your circle-running
Made a familiar friend
Of the dawn

And you fight it tooth and nail
Cause you ain't strong enough
So you're just a stranger to me
And we've been through it all, and how
It's crazy to think
That you're still a stranger to me
