Strangers

Lynn Anderson · Anthology, Vol. 2: The Chart Years [Renaissance] [1999]

(Liz Anderson)



All the love you promised would be mine forever

I would have bet my bottom dollar on

Well, it sure turned out to be a short forever

Just once I turned my back and you were gone.



From now on all my friends are gonna be strangers

I'm all through ever trusting anyone

The only thing I can count on now is my fingers

I was a fool believing you and now you are gone.



--- Instrumental ---



It amazes me not knowing any better than

To think I had a love that could be true

Why I should be taken out tarred and feathered

To have let myself be taken in by you.



From now on all my friends are gonna be strangers

I'm all through ever trusting anyone

The only thing I can count on now is my fingers

I was a fool believing you and now you are gone...
