There is this guy I knew
Whom I know very little about
He is sweet
He is gentle
And very kind
Yet I know nothing about what goes through his mind
He is a stranger
Someone I hardly know
Yet only with him have I shared things that I was afraid to show
He is the one I love
The one I want
And wish I did not have to live without
But we are different
And things are hard
But still I see his face
The lines from his laughter
And the softness in his eyes
Sometimes I want to reach out to hold him and cry
He is one I never knew
He is a stranger to me
But he knows me so well
He knows where my deepest feelings dwell
Still he loved me
As I loved him
But in the end we went our separate ways
For he knew me and I didn't know him
He is the stranger that walked into my life
Walked in and let me fall in love
So I thank him whereever he is now
He showed me things I never knew
He showed me, me
Things about myself I never would have found
And I thank him
My stranger
The one I fell in love with
He is the one
The one I love
He is the perfect stranger
