Falling in Love with a Stranger

By: Jacques Pierre Michaud

After thick and thin I've been through,
I finally realize that I should have never
let a stranger have my heart.

A stranger that I love very dearly
with all my heart has destroyed
the happiness I used to have.

I give her the most beautiful silver and gold
that anyone can ever imagine
and what do I get back from her in return.

I end up with a broken heart that will never heal again.

In return, I end up with this pain
that's been hurting me inside and
only God knows how long it will last.

In return, I end up with this headache
that no medicine can ease the pain away.
That's exactly what I get for falling in love with a stranger.

I finally have the courage to admit to myself
that falling in love with a stranger
is the biggest mistake I have made in my life.

I will never fall in love with a stranger that I just met.
I would never tell a stranger that
I love her more than anyone else.
I would never tell a stranger that
I love her more than anything.
I would never tell a stranger that
I want to be with her and only her.
I would never tell a stranger that
she's the one I’ve been waiting for.
I would never tell a stranger that
whenever she is around,
I feel this joy inside of me
wishing it could last forever.
I would never tell a stranger
that each time I see her, she brings the happiness
that I have missing in my world.
