Strangers In The Night

Johnny Mathis · Other Songs - Johnny Mathis

Strangers in the night,

Exchanging glances

Wandering the night,

What were the chances

We'd be sharing love

Before the night was through



Something in your eyes

Was so inviting

Something in your smile

Was so exciting

Something in my heart

Told me I must have you



Strangers in the night

Two lonely people

We were strangers in the night

Up to the moment

When we said our first hello

Little did we know

Love was just a glance away

A warm embracing dance away



And ever since that night

We've been together

Lovers at first sight

In love forever

It turned out so right



Strangers in the night

Two lonely people

We were strangers in the night

Up to the moment

When we said our first hello

Little did we know

Love was just a glance away

A warm embracing dance away

For strangers in the night.
