Perfect Stranger
Civil Twilight
Human (2007)

<tonight i feel something over me
something i can't change
many nights i have spent sailing
with many reasons to be brave

but tonight i feel my heart begin to fail
and my head begin to fall
like two ships crossing their paths
i see you see like you want

my perfect stranger
don't sail away
it was meant to be
we met this way
we met this way

some many nights i've been in this place
the winds haven't blown in seven days
i turn to the stars and moon at night
but the more i look
the more i lose sight

and heaven knows
heaven shows
pieces of the story
it's moments like these
the treasures we must see
so we can tell this story

oh my perfect stranger
don't sail away
tell me your secrets
and be on your way

hold me
go on and hold me
ooooh
cause there's no fear
there's no fear
there's no fear

oooh

my perfect stranger
arms opened wide to me
tell me your secrets
tell them onto me

oooooh
noooo

i say hold me now
my perfect stranger
hold me now
my perfect stranger>
