Stranger

[Verse 1]
Every once in a while it hits me
Oh, like a bullet I can only really hope it’ll miss me
You’re hoping for a change
And I hope you stay the same
But am I gonna wreck it if I speak my mind, speak my mind, speak my mind?

[Chorus]
When you’re not there
I get scared that you’ll become a stranger
That you’ll become a stranger
When you’re not there, outta the blue I don’t recognize you
I guess it’s human nature
That you’ll become a stranger
Don’t become a stranger, don’t become a stranger
Don’t become a stranger, don’t become a stranger

[Verse 2]
When you get on a plane, remember
Oh, neither one of us can keep this all together
And the road you’re walking down
Will it bring you back around?
Oh-oh, I’ve got a funny feeling that we’re out of time
But am I gonna wreck it if I speak my mind, speak my mind, speak my mind?

[Chorus]
When you’re not there
I get scared that you’ll become a stranger
That you’ll become a stranger
When you’re not there, outta the blue I don’t recognize you
I guess it’s human nature
That you’ll become a stranger
Don’t become a stranger, don’t become a stranger
Don’t become a stranger, don’t become a stranger

[Bridge]
When you’re up in the clouds
I won’t bring you down
I won’t bring you down
But you didn’t stick around
So I won’t bring you down
I won’t bring you down

[Chorus]
When you’re not there
Oh, I get scared that you’ll become a stranger
That you’ll become a stranger
When you’re not there, outta the blue I don’t recognize you
I guess it’s human nature
That you’ll become a stranger
Don’t become a stranger, don’t become a stranger
Don’t become a stranger, don’t become a stranger
Oh, don’t become a stranger, don’t become a stranger
No-o-o
Don’t become a stranger, don't become a stranger
Oh!
