We're merely strangers in the night
So when the daytimes comes, we walk on by
Whispers haunt us, no words anymore
I sleep next to a new face, and It feels right

My scent gave off those white lies
I'd come on home to familiar eyes
My weakness gave no peace to me
The guilt that lay with me at night
Wrapped around my wrists so tight
My weakness gave no peace to me

Strangers in the night
Strangers in disguise
I didn't know that you took flight
Cause we are strangers in the night
We are

Do you imagine me in a whole new light
To help you fight the love that lingers in your mind,
But looking back It's dark as the night fall
You'd wait behind the door
Never following me home

My scent gave off those white lies
I'd come on home to familiar eyes
My weakness gave no peace to me

Strangers in the night
Strangers in disguise
I didn't know that you took flight
Cause we are strangers in the night

But if I kept you
In my bed at night
And never moving on
We'd still be
Strangers in the night
Would you walk away and forget her name?
