[Verse 1]
Every word, every touch
Every look is a little too much
I'm helpless now to the arms of this stranger
Haunting smiles, one by one
Creep inside, and it's over and done
I've lost control, but without feeling danger
[Chorus]
Does he know
How it feels to be dying inside?
To let go
How it feels to be wondering
If he would say no?
How it feels, oh, my everyday stranger
[Verse 2]
Playing games in my mind
Say that I know one of his kind
I'll wrap him up in a blanket of goodbyes
Then a turn for the worst
He looks up, and I'm already cursed
Tangled up, and it's harder to disguise
[Chorus]
Does he know
How it feels to be dying inside?
To let go
How it feels to be wondering
If he would say no?
How it feels, oh, my everyday stranger
[Bridge]
There's nothing I wouldn't do
To keep from dreaming of you
Unless you wanted me to
But that's something I may never know, no, oh
There's nothing I wouldn't say
To make it easier to walk away
Unless you asked me to say
But the only way I'll survive is if I go
[Chorus]
Does he know
How it feels to be dying inside?
To let go
How it feels to be wondering
If anything shows?
How it feels, oh, my everyday stranger
[Outro]
Oh, my everyday stranger
Oh, my everyday stranger
