White Lies - Strangers lyrics

rate me

pressed my ear to your chest and heard something personal

A whisper that knew my name

Is this how your heart treats all strangers,

With love and affection?

Then I feel cold and empty

I've got a sense of urgency

I've gotta make this happen

No stone unturned

I've got a sense of urgency

I've gotta make something happen

No stone unturned

I held your hand while you were sleeping

The whole night you gripped to mine

A grip that begged me to stay

Is this how your limbs treat all strangers,

With love and affection?

Then I feel weak and empty

I've got a sense of urgency

I've gotta make this happen

No stone unturned

I've got a sense of urgency

I've gotta make something happen

No stone unturned

Strangers don't hide

The morning hunts you down

But there's nothing stranger than to love someone

I heard the water beat on your skin a shower of discipline

As heavy as iron

And I imagined the hand that gripped mine

Now gripping the gaps in the tile

Just holding on tight

I've got a sense of urgency

I've gotta make this happen

No stone unturned

I've got a sense of urgency

I've gotta make something happen

No stone unturned

Strangers don't hide

The morning hunts you down

But there's nothing stranger than to love someone
