Stranger In My Arms

(Fuzzy Owen - Wally Lewis)

Merle Haggard & Bonnie Owens



I don't thrill you like I used to do there's something on your mind

Now you treat me cold instead of warm

And you're not just not the same old you that I used to call mine

And you feel like a stranger in my arms.



When I hold you close to me you still seem far away

I tried my best to bring you back but something's in the way

And even when I'm kissing you I'm missing all your charms

And you feel like a stranger in my arms.



I don't see the love light in your eyes for me no more

The flame is cold that used to burn so warm

There's a strangeness in your ways I'd never known before

And you feel like a stranger in my arms.



When I hold you close to me you still seem far away

I tried my best to bring you back but something's in the way

And even when I'm kissing you I'm missing all your charms

And you feel like a stranger in my arms.



And you feel like a stranger in my arms...
