Arms of A Stranger


I spent a night in the arms of a stranger
But he was gone with the first light of the dawn
And I just let him go with a smile and a memory
It was just easier that way than trying to hang on

Do you remember me 
Sometimes when you sleep
I’d like to creep into your dreams

There are no words that say 
The way I felt, the way
I looked into his eyes and knew that moment was all I had
I tried to save myself by not expecting too much 
I still think of him in spite of all that

I don’t remember when I started lying to myself
You know, I think my indifference is feigned



Now I can’t close my eyes 
And see him in my mind
That’s not a tragedy, It’s mercy
Does he spare a thought
For the girl who sends this one to him
Or am I easy to forget?
