Lyrics

You were just a stranger
And I couldn't fight the curiosity
And I was tempted by the danger
And I craved to know so I sunk in my teeth
And now bitterness is all I taste and the salt from the tears rolling down my face
Was it worth it all, cause now I'm trapped here in this place

When I see you I don't see you like a stranger anymore
When I see you I can't look at you the way I did before
I wish I could turn back time to when you were just a mystery
Cause when I see you all I see is all our history
I see you and me
Oh I wish you were a stranger
Oh I wish you were a stranger

I used to sit and wonder
how it would feel to kiss your lips and hold you in my arms
I was the sun and you were thunder
the thief of my heart disguised in perfect charm
We lost all control and jumped in way too deep
You got out of the cold and left me in to freeze and now there's no one around and I'm drowning in this misery

And when I see you I don't see you like a stranger anymore
When I see you I can't look at you the way I did before
I wish I could turn back time to when you were just a mystery
Cause when I see you all I see is all our history
I see you and me
Oh I wish you were a stranger
Oh I wish you were a stranger

And we heard that same old song about two becoming one. Must have played a thousand times
And I thought I saw it all but I guess it's possible I misread the signs

And when I see you I don't see you like a stranger anymore
When I see you I can't look at you the way I did before
I wish I could turn back time to when you were just a mystery
Cause when I see you all I see is all our history
I see you and me
Oh I wish you were a stranger
Oh I wish you were a stranger
Oh I wish you were a stranger
