Perfect Stranger - Patti Rothberg

作词：Patti Rothberg

作曲：Patti Rothberg

The first time you appeared there as a shadow on the wall

The second time I barely even saw you there at all

And all the dreams and fantasies that put you to the test

I take the faintest outline and my mind fills in the rest

Will I need you like a brand new morning sun

Or will I grow to hate you like all the other ones

But what I think you are is all I see

And as long as you're a stranger

As long as you're a stranger you'll stay perfect to me

Every night a lonely fight for something to be clear

I turn the page of dreary days and that's where you appear

So I build you up in little clay constructions in my head

And I like what I see

Will I need you like a brand new morning sun

Or will I grow to hate you like all the other ones

What I think you are is all I see

And as long as you're a stranger

As long as you're a stranger you'll stay perfect to me

I used to seek within the crowd a place for me to hide

Or look in every eye and try to find myself inside

But in all this confusion I have finally seen the light

I'll never know a person like the you I know tonight

Will I need you like a brand new morning sun

Or will I grow to hate you like all the other ones

What I think you are is all I see

And as long as you're a stranger

As long as you're a stranger

As long as you're a stranger you'll stay perfect to me
