Lyrics
That Stranger
Took you out to a concert, see your favorite band, all eyes were upon you, strutting, oh so grand.
In that sexy short skirt, you made the boys sweat, standing there, rubbing, ogling, a dangerous bet. You loved every glance, the attention and the thrill,
While I fought my anger, every doubt, every chill.
When you slid next to that stranger, thighs creamy and bare,
Thoughts of double homicide flashed, but I tried not to stare.
Oh, stranger, you ain't worth my time, But here I am, caught up in this crime.
While the music rocks hard and the crowd starts to sway,
I'm losing my mind, but you're lost in play.
The stage was lit, and the stomping began, Rocking music filled the hall, kicking up sand.
Curious glances wandering, your pulse racing high, his hand inches close, while I couldn't deny.
You were lost in the rhythm, wiggling with flair,
Screaming the lyrics, not a worry or care.
Grinning like a ghost, that stranger held you tight, Caught in the moment, my heart prepared for a fight.
Oh, stranger, you ain't worth my time, But here I am, caught up in this crime.
While the music rocks hard and the crowd starts to sway,
I'm losing my mind, but you're lost in play.
As the lights dimmed low, the energy surged, Fingers started rubbing, my stomach emerged.
I heard low moans echo, felt my spirit get torn, You were jumping, smiling, in a world reborn.
I couldn't take it longer, my heart shattered whole,
Saw the spotlight shining on your treacherous soul. you were never worth it; time to let this go,
Walked out to the cool night where the stars start to glow.
Oh, stranger, you ain't worth my time, But here I am, caught up in this crime.
While the music rocks hard and the crowd starts to sway, I'm losing my mind, but you're lost in play.
So I'm out here beneath the stars' gentle wink, My life's about to unfold, not just sink.
To the rhythm of my heart, I'm making my plan, Leaving behind the heartache, with each step, I stand.
That stranger, that night, he won't know my name, But I'll dance through the fire, living life untamed.
