I believe this was the first song I had the pleasure of writing with Paul Overstreet. His catalog floors me—every time I hear something else that he’s written, it’s just staggering to me.
The song is about a beautiful stranger— someone that you see from afar but you never really get to speak to. Ag...
[Verse 1]
Beautiful stranger
You come here quite here often
I don't know your name
But I know what you drink
You got a secret
But it's one you can't keep
Oh, beautiful stranger
You're an angel to me
[Verse 2]
So if you're feeling lonely
Come sit next to me
We'll find a slow song to dance to
And strangers no longer we'll be
[Verse 3]
Beautiful stranger
So lovely tonight
Could it be my future
That I see in your eyes?
Take me to Heaven
And do as you please
Oh, beautiful stranger (Stranger)
You're an angel (Angel) to me (To me)
[Verse 4]
Beautiful stranger
You come here quite here often
I don't know your name
But I know what you drink
You got a secret
But it's one you can't keep
Oh, beautiful stranger (Stranger)
You are like an angel (Angel) to me (Me)
[Outro]
Oh, beautiful stranger (Stranger)
You are like an angel to me (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
