Favourite Stranger Lyrics - Fish

Some times I feel I lost something in gaining everything 

But I can't put my finger on what it was 

It's just one of those nagging feelings 

Like sitting with your back to an open door 

Waiting on a favorite stranger, a favorite stranger 

I find it hard to talk about 

It's not easy as you might expect 

Just sitting here waiting, trying to accept 

That there's something missing 

That there's something not quite there 

And that's why you're sitting there 

Listening to me as I try to explain 

You're my favorite stranger but don't read between the lines 

I could tell you I love you at this moment in passing time 

But I could honestly tell you 

I don't know why I'm here sharing all my problems with you 

When you've already got your own share from favorite stranger 

Maybe it's just I need an audience to pretend it's all an act 

But all I gain is your confidence and a number in a Filofax 

On the terms that it's a first name that will run 

One day in split champagne and I'll recollect and just accept 

That you were one of my favorite stranger, my favorite stranger 

You're my favorite stranger but don't read between the lines 

I could say that I love you at this moment in passing time 

But I could honestly tell you 

I don't know why I'm here sharing all my problems with you 

When you've already got your own share from favorite stranger 

Sometimes I know I lost everything in gaining something 

But I can't put my finger on what it was, it's just a nagging feelings 

Like sitting with your back to an open door 

Expecting favorite stranger, expecting favorite stranger 

I could honestly tell you 

That you're my favorite stranger 

I could honestly tell you cross my heart 

That you're my favorite stranger
