[Verse 1]
Looks like the sun ain't gonna shine day
Like yesterday, gonna be cloudy and gray
That's the way it's been since she left me behind
Oh, I'm so [?] trouble in mind
[Pre-Chorus]
I gave her my everything, my heart and my soul
I've placed myself under her complete control
[Chorus]
And she left me for the love of a stranger
She left me for the love of a stranger
[Verse 2]
Remember when was walking deep down the street to loneliness
Like a fool I followed her, too weak to protest
Not knowing any day I'd be replaced
Too much in love with her smiling face
[Pre-Chorus]
I really love her with a love so deep
I gave her my everything, my everything to keep
[Chorus]
And she left me for the love of a stranger
She left me for the love of a stranger
[Piano solo]
[Verse 3]
Now I gave her everything, my heart and my soul, yeah
I placed myself under her complete control
[Chorus]
But she left me for the love of a stranger
She left me for the love of a stranger
