Stranger In The House |
This never was one of the great romances |
But I thought you’d always have those young girl’s eyes |
But now they look in tired and bitter glances |
At the ghost of a man who walks 'round in my disguise |
I get the feeling that I don’t belong here |
But there’s no welcome in the window anyway |
And I look down for a number on my keychain |
'Cause it feels more like a hotel everyday |
There’s a stranger in the house; |
nobody’s seen his face |
But everybody says he’s taken my place |
There’s a stranger in the house no one will ever see |
But everybody says he looks like me |
And now you say you’ve got no expectations |
But I know you also miss those carefree days |
And for all the angry words that passed between us |
You still don’t understand me when I say |
There’s a stranger in the house; |
nobody’s seen his face |
But everybody says he’s taken my place |
There’s a stranger in the house no one will ever see |
But everybody says he looks like me |
