[Verse 1]

Don’t ask me how I know

But I know you’ve been listening to all those songs

I wrote about you

I know you probably don’t

But sometimes I wonder if you ever miss me

The way I miss you


[Pre-Chorus]

Do you ever break down in your car after work?

Do you ever just wonder

If we could’ve made it work?

Do you ever tell your friends

That you wish we could’ve been?

Does your mother ever ask

If you’ve talked to me since?


[Chrous]

Stranger, dear

I don’t know you anymore

And it’s just weird

To once be someone you adored

Oh pretty stranger don’t disappear

Oh lovely angel wish you were here

Stranger, dear


[Verse 2]

I know it’s been a while

But I still accidentally bring you up

In conversation sometimes

Maybe I’m in denial

They say that it gets better

But I’m starting to question if that’s right


[Pre-Chrous]

Cause I always break down in my car after work

I always just wonder

If we could’ve made it work

I always tell my friends

That I wish we could’ve been

And my mother always asks

If you’ve talked to me since?


[Chrous]

Stranger, dear

I don’t know you anymore

And it’s just weird

To once be someone you adored

Oh pretty stranger don’t disappear

Oh lovely angel wish you were here

Stranger, dear

Stranger, dear


[Bridge]

(Stranger, dear)

It’s been so long

Maybe I should move on

I wrote too many songs

About you


[Outro]

Stranger, dear
