Best of Strangers

(Bill Anderson - Buddy Killen)



Love is full of happiness

But love is full of dangers

The very best of sweethearts

And became the best of strangers.



I only knew that your two lips

Could kiss and whisper sweet

I never stopped to think

That those two lips could also cheat.



Your precious love was mine

At least that's what I told myself

Until I found you

In the arms of someone else.



I only saw the happiness

I overlooked the dangers

Until the best of sweethearts

Became the best of strangers.



And now they see us in the crowd

And think we've never met

Each time they introduce us

Makes it harder to forget.



But you keep on pretending

I'm somebody you don't know

I'm not the stranger

But the one who loves you so.



Love is full of happiness

But love is full of dangers

The very best of sweethearts

And became the best of strangers...
