Lyrics

Oh-oh-oh

Yeah

God, I don't know where to begin (To begin)

I'm so lost, I can't even pretend

Like the girl that I see right in front of me don't have control

She's like a friend to my heart, key to my future

Lover of soul

Crazy thing, I didn't even know her name (Know her name)

Who she was and where she came from

But she passed me this passion, pushed back my action

Like we couldn't deal

Said something 'bout timing, paths not aligning

But I need her still

Left my heart with lovely stranger (Stranger)

One way street headed for danger (Danger)

Closed my eyes but still can't fade her

She's been there for years (She's been there for years)

I've been hurt messin' with lesser (Lesser)

Even though I do no better (Better)

I spend my nights writing love letters

Landing on deaf ears

So I ask (So I ask)

Can she be (Can she be)

A simple friend (A simple friend)

Also made for me?

Is it a phase (Just a phase)

Just passing by (Passing by)

Or could she be (Could she be)

Missing pieces in my life?

God, I ask you for clarity (Clarity)

There's an answer there's gotta be (Gotta be)

If it was just a crush or infatuation, I'd understand

But she reaches for me, use words when we speak

Like I was her man

Left my heart with lovely stranger (Stranger)

One way street headed for danger (Danger)

Closed my eyes but still can't fade her

She's been there for years (She's been there for years)

I've been hurt messin' with lesser (Lesser)

Even though I do no better (Better)

I spend my nights writing love letters

Landing on deaf ears

So I ask (So I ask)

Can she be (Can she be)

A simple friend (A simple friend)

Also made for me?

Is it a phase (Just a phase)

Just passing by (Passing by)

Or could she be (Could she be)

Missing pieces in my life?

God, I ask you for clarity

Oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Nooooo-oh-oh-oh

Nooooo-oh-oh-oh

Left my heart with lovely stranger (Stranger)

One way street headed for danger (Danger)

Closed my eyes but still can't fade her

She's been there for years (She's been there for years)

I've been hurt messin' with lesser (Oh)

Even though I do no better (Better)

I spend my nights writing love letters

(No-no-no-no-no-no, no-no)

Left my heart with lovely stranger (Stranger)

One way street headed for danger (Danger)

Closed my eyes but still can't fade her

She's been there for years (She's been there for years)

I've been hurt messin' with lesser (Oh)

Even though I do no better (Better)

Spend my nights writing love letters

Landing on deaf ears

Left my heart with lovely stranger (Oh, no)

One way street headed for danger (Oh, ohhhh)

Closed my eyes but still can't fade her (Oh, oh)

She... she's been there for years

I've been hurt messin' with lesser (Oh, no)

Even though I do no better (Oh, ohhhh)

Spend my nights writing love letters (Oh-oh-oh)

Yeah-eah-yeah
