Song Description

Lyrics
TITLE: You Stranger
VERSE
You stranger, let me make it up to you
The words you whisper put a promise in my mouth
You stranger, how could you convince me
You were heading my way when indications pointed South
You're very ordinary but stranger than light
VERSE
You stranger, you can walk away from unsolved mysteries
What's your prediliction
You stranger, amen is pounding in your head
You can't help yourself you've got a life addiction
Maybe that explains your fear of flight
BRIDGE
Look over here, don't make me beg
Look over here, I'll show you some leg
Chances go by I can't let them go
The promise I keep you'll never know
CHORUS
Let me make it up to you
Let me make it up to you
Let me make it up to you
Let me make it up to you
VERSE
You stranger smell so nice I'd like to wrap myself around you
You're so damn elusive
You stranger don't think twice about making a girl feel
Hot and exclusive
VERSE
Hey stranger I'm begging for trouble
Jump into the fire with me get closer to the danger
You stranger, stranger than strange
But very ordinary you freaky, freaky stranger
CHORUS
Let me make it up to you
Let me make it up to you
Let me make it up to you
Let me make it up to you
