Stranger Than Strangers Lyrics

i might not make it home
so don't set a plate for me.
our department's been getting slammed
since the cutbacks in marketing

put your pictures on my desk.
and i'm wearing the sweater you made.
so give the girls a kiss for me.
tell 'em daddy's working late.

the worst thing that she ever said to me
was the first thing that she ever said to me.
i was all alone at happy hour.
you thought i could use some company.
it's strange we're strangers.

i might not make it home.
i guess i've used that line before.
my excuses are wearing thin
and your patience is getting worse.
you're always fast asleep
when i sneak into bed at night
or at least that's how it seems, it seems
we'll do anything to hide the lie.

the worst thing you could ever say to me
will be the last thing that you'll ever say to me
i can see you boxing up the kitchen
with the girls beside you wrapping dishes.
don't be a stranger.

you don't have to say a word.
you don't have to make excuses.
you don't have to change for me.
we'll continue on as strangers.

the worst thing that she ever said to me
was the first thing that she ever said to me.
i was all alone at happy hour.
you thought i could use some company.
stranger than strangers
