You Were a Stranger - Rhett Miller

Wind blew hard

Rain pelted the car

I squeezed the wheel and I held it together

You rode along

Whistlin' a song

Knowing you were next to me made me feel better, like

Here we are

For the one-hundredth time

Laughin' in the face of danger

There you are

Thank God that you’re mine

I don’t know what I’d do if you were a stranger

Wind blew hard

Rain flooded the yard

I was in exile, my next move was crucial

You were a friend

Of a friend of a friend

Thank God a strange twist of fate introduced us, then

There we were

For the very first time

Lookin' for adventure

You would wind up

My partner in crime

I did not know that yet-you were a stranger

Here we are

For the one-millionth time

Laughin' in the face of danger

There you are

Thank God that you’re mine

Don’t know what I’d do if you were a stranger

I don’t know what I’d do if you were a stranger
