Song Lyrics

Suddenly the stranger moves to catch my eye
I'm an empty shell and he doesn't know why.
The situation looks right
Why shouldn't we just fall?

But the feeling inside it ain't right at all.
We could have a love affair if I just give him the sign
All I really need to do is to put you out of my mind.
Goodbye stranger
We couldn't be more than friends
I'm still in love
You know
And I've given my heart to him.
Momentary weakness caught me by surprise
In the strangers arms found me full of lies.
Running away from danger I couldn't help but call your name
But it wasn't you and it never felt the same.
I will always be a slave to the love he gave to me
He has locked away my heart and I don't want to find the key.
Goodbye stranger
We couldn't be more than friends
I'm still in love
You know
And I've given my heart to him.
Goodbye stranger
We couldn't be more than friends
Don't want to break the chains and I've given my heart to him.

Richard Davies, Roger Hodgson
