“Don’t Be A Stranger” is the third single released off of the forthcoming EP. It was preceded by the release of double single “Control” and “Airport”, which were both met with great praise.

[Verse 1]
Close the door
Behind you
You might feel the draft
Escape from underneath
[Verse 2]
There's a vacant seat
Where many strangers
Nightly meet
They're here to hear you out
[Pre-Chorus]
There's nothing to
Things that are new
Where'd you go
When you are through
[Chorus]
Don't be a stranger (don't you hear me)
Don't be a reverie (don't be a reverie)
Don't be a stranger (don't you hear me)
Don't be a reverie (don't be a reverie)
[Verse 3]
You pass me by
And briefly
Let me know just why
I'm out here looking in these eyes
(And not at some reflection
In the window of a train passing a station
There is probably a reason why)
[Verse 4]
We are on the move
Where the needle drops
We'll find our groove
[Verse 5]
We know that it takes two to tango
Three to triangle
And four hands to build a home
[Pre-Chorus]
There's nothing to
Things that are new
Where'd you go
When you are through
[Chorus]
Don't be a stranger (don't you hear me)
Don't be a reverie (don't be a reverie)
Don't be a stranger (don't you hear me)
Don't be a reverie (don't be a reverie)
Don't be a stranger (don't you hear me)
Don't be a reverie (don't be a reverie)
Don't be a stranger (don't you hear me)
Don't be a reverie (don't be a reverie)
(Don't be a stranger)
(Don't be a stranger)
(Don't be a stranger)
(Don't be a stranger)
[Pre-Chorus]
There's nothing to
Things that are new
Where'd you go
Where'd you go
[Chorus]
Don't be a stranger (don't you hear me)
Don't be a reverie (don't be a reverie)
Don't be a stranger (don't you hear me)
Don't be a reverie (don't be a reverie)
Don't be a stranger (don't you hear me)
Don't be a stranger (don't be a reverie)
Don't be a stranger (don't you hear me)
Don't be a stranger (don't be a reverie)
