So you're getting ready
Working up your courage
It's been a while since he's been gone
Putting on your jeans tight
Fixing up your hair just right
Slipping out the door to find this song
Hopping in your old car
Headed for the old bar
You watch the twilight slip away
Gonna find a new face
One to take his place
Just what are you going to say
When the perfect stranger
Comes riding into your night like a Texas Ranger
When it feels just right
There's an element of danger
When you finally give it up to the perfect stranger
Onе more step
Baby, then you'rе gone
Sitting on a bar stool
Tryin' to look real cool
You catch his eye, he asks your name
Could it be the last dance
Could it be your last chance
This night could be your lucky day
When the perfect stranger
Comes riding into your night like a Texas Ranger
When it feels just right
There's an element of danger
When you finally give it up to the perfect stranger
One more step
Baby, then you're gone
Walking past the streetlight
Together in the starlit night
You ask yourself, "Is it too much?"
Could it be the real thing
Or just another smoke-filled dream
You'll find the answer in his touch
When the perfect stranger
Comes riding into your night like a Texas Ranger
When it feels just right
There's an element of danger
When you finally give it up to the perfect stranger
One more step
Baby, then you're gone
Baby, then you're gone
Baby, then you're gone
Baby, then you're gone
Baby, then you're gone
