Lloyd Dobler Effect — Stranger lyrics

Lyrics

I walked into this bar last night
To give my mind a holiday
I was down on my luck, in need of a quick vacation
This was just my kind of place
She walked in like a cold wet treasure
Sister came in from the rain
She said? please excuse me, I don? t mean to intrude but
Something tells me you? re in pain?
There ain? t nothing like a stranger looking out for you
To make you feel like you? re at home
And ain? t it something when she? s someone sweet and beautiful
And you don? t spend the night alone
Well, I flunked out of high school and college
But I got a good job working nights at the harbor place
I ain? t got no ladylove, at least none that I acknowledge
But damn I dig this lady? s taste
There ain? t nothing like a stranger looking out for you
To make you feel like you? re at home
And ain? t it something when she? s someone sweet and beautiful
And you don? t spend the night alone
There ain? t nothing like a stranger to
Make you feel like you? re at home.
Pick your head up and bring that smile back and
Turn the night to something new
