The Stranger I Love Songtext / Lyric

I've been a simple man, and i've been insane
I've been a vagabond, and i've been a king
But i've been a better man just tryin' to please
The stranger i love

Lost in the wilderness, darker than pain
And drawn to her loneliness, just like a flame
The closer we come, the more that i lean
The stranger i love

Bad as i loved her, i ain't afraid
We'll be together, some lovin' way
I'll be her lover just as long as i can
Then when it's over, she'll need a friend

So i'll take her hand-me-downs; i'll take the blame
I'll ba a hang-around; i ain't ashamed
'cause the longer i love her, the more i believe
The stranger i love
