Strangers Lyrics

Young man-child, grew up far away

Young girl, out on her own

Neither one of us had much of a plan

And neither one had a permanent home

We were so naïve

Babes in the woods

Found each other but I'm not sure how

We were strangers then

But we're not strangers now

Our first impressions left us both guessing

But a lucky second chance

Brought us good fortune, blew all the doors open

To passion and our sweet romance

We were hopelessly random

Fumbling in tandem

Toward the love life our fates would allow

We were strangers then

But we're not strangers now

It seems so unlikely, looking back

That it turned out this way

We could have passed right by

And sailed on, like ships in the night

Who can trace the mysterious chain

Of events that now binds us

That brought our two paths out of the darkness

And into the light?

Grew to know each other step by step

A little bit more all the time

'til every secret of my heart was yours

And every one of yours was mine

It was love and good luck

Took us both for a ride

On this wilderness trail we plow

We were strangers then

But we're not strangers now

Like two wild horses

Out on the range

Ending up in the same corral

We were strangers then

But we're not strangers now

We were strangers then

But we're not strangers now
