In The Arms Of A Stranger lyrics

[Verse 1]

I was 16 with a rocket

And some sunshine in my pocket

It was how you used words I didn’t know

And the way you said my name

And cut up peaches and them brown eyes

Little flame that we pretend doesn’t glow

[Pre-Chorus]

You know space and time wouldn’t let you be mine

What I’ve come to understand

Is entropy wouldn’t leave you to me

I’m right back where I began

[Chorus]

In the arms of a stranger, pretending it’s love

Holding her closely, remembering your touch

And I’m wrapped around your finger, even though I’m knocked up

In the arms of a stranger, pretending it’s love

[Verse 2]

There were times I think about us

Overcome by the nostalgias

I am on call when you need me, let me know

But we’re drifting in a strange way

I’m aware that it’s mistake if I love you

It’s a mistake if I don’t

[Pre-Chorus]

You know space and time wouldn’t let you be mine

What I’ve come to understand

Is entropy wouldn’t leave you to me

I’m right back where I began

[Chorus]

In the arms of a stranger, pretending it’s love

Holding her closely, remembering your touch

And I’m wrapped around your finger, even though I’m knocked up

In the arms of a stranger, pretending it’s love

[Bridge]

And she smelled like Michigan

And it felt like lust

And the nostalgia’s killing me

And it’s all because

[Chorus]

I’m in the arms of a stranger, pretending it’s love

Holding her closely, remember your touch

And I’m wrapped around your finger, even though I’m knocked up

In the arms of a stranger, stranger, stranger

In the arms of a stranger, pretending it’s love

Holding her closely, remember your touch

And I’m wrapped around your finger, even though I’m knocked up

In the arms of a stranger, pretending it’s love
