In Love with a Stranger

Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)



I am in Love with a Stranger,
And I don't know the reason why,
My Heart goes Pitter Patter,
Every time you pass me by.
I want to tell you Hi,
Build the courage to Say Hello,
I know that I'm just too shy,
But Hey, I'll never know.
Well, at least it's worth a Try!
I'm not even going Lie!
I am in Love with a Stranger
I just don"t know what to say
I wish that you would notice me
But you never look my way.
I am in Love with a Stranger
That doesn't know I exist
At times, I want to Stalk Him
Fighting the Urge,
But I can't Resist.
I am in Love with a Stranger
I don't even know your name
I know nothing about your whereabouts,
Where you're from or where you came.
I am in Love with a Stranger
It's not really a Big Surprise
That every time that I see you
You give to me Butterflies.
I am in Love with a Stranger
I am obsessed with this Man
Developing feelings that shouldn't be
And I just don't understand
I am in Love with a Stranger
I am intrigued by his bright glow
Attracted to his Swagger
A Man I would like to know
I am in Love with a Stranger
But I don't want to scare him away
Although in my Imagination,
We might actually meet one Day
For I am in Love with this Stranger
But I don't know who you are
So, therefore I will not bother you
I'll just admire you from Afar!
