We Were Strangers

You never asked for much

But I loved you just the same

You, with your quiet eyes

And a face without a name

You stood there staring

As I sang another song

We were strangers then

We weren't strangers long

It was all that I could do

Not to turn away and hide

You stared right through me

As you stood there at my side

The things I read in those blue eyes

They seemed so calm and strong

We were strangers then

We weren't strangers long

Now, we weren't strangers long

Though we never spoke at all

But in your eyes, I saw you knew

We were heading for a fall

I love you so completely

I never thought it might be wrong

We were strangers then

But we weren't strangers long

We weren't strangers long

Though we never spoke at all

In your eyes, I saw you knew

We were heading for a fall

I knew you so completely

I never thought it might be wrong

We were strangers then

But we weren't strangers long

Just like a book

When it's read between the lines

It's the words that weren't spoken

That told me you were mine

And now, the pages turn

But the story still goes on

We were strangers then

We weren't strangers long
