Youve Only Been a Stranger by David McWilliams Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hold back the day a little longer
I need the night to make me blind
Didn't know it but I know it now
You've only been a stranger all this time

[Verse 2]
I thought I'd climbed up every mountain
Thought I'd walked each weary shore
But every word hits like a hammer
And I can't take it any more

[Bridge]
A woman for a friend
That's no answer for a man
He needs a lover, too
Someone who'll be beside him
Share each losin' hand
Help him make it through

[Verse 3]
Your mouth frames words that cannot hide your face
It's written there in every line
Didn't know it but I know it now
You've only been a stranger all this time
[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh . .
