about

wrote this one in jail, april of 2016. recorded it when i got out in May. my friend Kevin played cello on it.

lyrics

Saw you just the other day
Felt like there was something I should say
But the only words that would come out of my mouth were
“honey, you’re a stranger to me now”
You were still deeply in love
That at least to me was clear enough
The last thing that I wanted to do was to bring you down
But baby, you’re a stranger to me now
And it’s not your fault or mine
All it was was too much passing time
We let the king of memory bow down and drop his crown
And darling, you’re a stranger to me now
But to recognize your face
Brought me back to much happier days
When I could read the thoughts behind your pretty little brow
But baby, you’re a stranger to me now
When I walked away again
Who could have said that we’d ever been friends?
I used to love you more than anything I’d ever found
But honey, you’re a stranger to me now
It’s funny how the heart forgets the things it used to hound
Funny, you’re a stranger to me now
