My Love, You're A Stranger
Johnny Burnette Trio · Other Songs - Johnny Burnette Trio
My heart is filled with fears
I'm so afraid this love of ours
Will surely end in tears
Tell me if it's over
Don't be afraid you'll make me cry
I'd rather have a broken heart
Than a love that is a lie
What happened to the joy that we knew
The joy that once was ours
What brought about to change all of this
That causes my lonely life
Sweet love you're a stranger
If we're through, please tell me so
You got me at a crossroads
Stranger, which way do I go
What happened to the joy that we knew
The joy that once was ours
What brought about to change all of this
That causes my lonely life
Sweet love you're a stranger
If we're through, please tell me so
You got me at a crossroads
Stranger, sweet stranger, which way do I go
My Love, You're A Stranger
